Absent

I saw a scene today, of a friend and his brother. It was sad and disheartening, but this is what came of it (even though it really seems to have nothing to do with it...I promise, deep down, it does haha).

Absent

put through trials

I shouldn't have to face

stand up to those

who show such disgrace

you should be here

you should be the one

but you've thrown it all on me

when I should be your son

talk to the brothers

make them understand

protect the sisters

from another man

you should be here

you should be the one

but you've thrown it all on me

when I should be your son

take care of mother

don't let her slip

when I return

I'll take the grip

but you aren't here

you aren't the one

you've thrown it all on me

I don't want to be your son.
