Description
I once knew a man who where a periodic alcoholic. He were functioning while at work, but at home he drank. His wife left him and he had very little contact with his daughter. He sometimes called her when drunk. Even if he loved his daughter he didn't seem to have the strength to get out of the abuse
Lyrics
Stuck One old scarred soul Wears on a city park-bench With the bottle he needs to survive Has never before And probably will never ever Lose his faith in the ties weaving the dream together, plays it once more Again and again and again Reminding him of the long lost times from before And every long lost friend Cannot find reason enough to live And without breaking a single tear He begs his daughter to forgive him Every day every year I should have been there I should have stood there by your side But I got lost somewhere Between the darkness and shadows behind Like every night Anxiety colors his sleep and Freedom is lost in sin And every night He tries to fight it but loses His will is too weak to win Chains down his mind in shackles In body so frail With thirst that won’t disappear He trembles around in the darkness and cannot see The bright way to get out of there Cannot find reason enough to live And without breaking a single tear He begs his daughter to forgive him Every day every year I should have been there I should have stood there by your side But I got lost somewhere Between the darkness and shadows behind
