Lyrics

I tried to skip school today and I hid behind the trees behind the clouds where nobody could find me You were there in your smoking chair you looked me over threw me over your shoulder said that I was going "Why can't you see? Your chances, much more than me?" You woke up climbed into your painting van 6 or 7 days a week you call it a living but no one saw you dying You gave us nieces and you made hard choices and you moved your family east of the mountains You stood in the sun and made one last stand and the sun it caught you crying "Why can't you see the light that's all around you? Why can't you see the light that is all inside? You think you only are a black cloud and you think you let everyone down and you think you only are a black shroud but If you ask anyone around you anyone who knows you they will say it's just not true.
