I can tell you now
That shit aint fair
I can see how
A man can’t bear
To sit there and watch
As his hero corrodes
What do I say
How can I console
A man who for so many years
Has been attacked by all of his fears
His eyes cloud but hes far too strong for tears
Is it selfish of me
To not wanna stay
Is it selfish of me’to not wanna see him that way?
Well what do you say
Tell him its gone be fine?
Try to stay strong
Cuz I don’t want him to see me cry
Could never tell him how his end
Eats me up inside
Got this vision in my head that won’t subside
His head in his hands on the kitchen table
That look in his eyes so filled with anger
That fellin of peerin in a mirror and seein a stranger
No doctors to count on for savior
I wish I could explain
How proud of you I am
That’s why I got that tat
Bearin yer name
Im so proud that my name
is the same as that guy name
hope I can become just half the man
this shit is hard to say
and you might not wanna hear it
but I wish I could tell you
exactly how I was feelin
I say youll be ok
I wish youd believe it
You never looked for pitty
The toughest man
There ever was breathin
And I love for that
And I hope yer traits rub off
And I wish the rest of yer days
Didn’t have to be sparse
Wish I could take your pain
Even if just for a minute
So that for even sixty seconds you didn’t have to live with it
Wish you could breath a long sigh of relief
Without clutchin yer chest
I wish nothing for you but the best
Close yer eyes now… its ok to rest
