Rewind back to then
see I was just a kid
And I didn't know
oh Mother where did he go
And that solemn look she gave
oh God that image stayed
The pain alive despite disguise
through her trembling lips
and bloodshot eyes
Paralyzed for a moment
bet you're life you wouldn't stay
Better hope we don't cross paths
cause there'll be hell to pay
I am better without you
You couldn't love what you would undo
I'm a man today no thanks to you
All the feeling of regret
I hope you know what you left
I'll never miss you
See me yeah I'm upset
And my brothers won't forget
introduced for the first time at
8 years old to a world so cold
A coward's claim to fame
all for his selfish gain
But his failed attempts to break our home
made us stronger than we'll ever know
Paralyzed for a moment
bet you're life you wouldn't stay
Better hope we don't cross paths
cause there'll be hell to pay
Paralyzed for a moment
bet you're life you wouldn't stay
Better hope we don't cross paths
cause there'll be hell to pay
I know I never say it enough
what you did for both of us
You kept me strong
It's hard enough to see the road
that leads us home
It's hard enough to walk
when we can't bear the load
that's on our shoulders
And when the day tries to break away
it's hold on our soul don't let go
First time through a broken life
seconds tick running out of time
Where were you when I needed you
You said you'd be there for me
through and through
First time through a broken life
seconds tick running out of time
Where were you when I needed you
You said you'd be there for me
through and through
through and through
You said you'd be there for me
Paralyzed for a moment
bet you're life you wouldn't stay
Better hope we don't cross paths
cause there'll be hell to pay
Paralyzed for a moment
bet you're life you wouldn't stay
Better hope we don't cross paths
cause there'll be hell to pay
There'll be hell to pay
I'm a man today no thanks to you
There'll be hell to pay
