Take a Stand

Cold bare feet on a wood floor led To a grown man lying in a child’s bed Nightfall brought a subtle dread All the things I did, to get ahead There’s a grown man lying in my little bed You were a teacher in my eager eyes What’s love if not my dreams, realized Nothing to gain without compromise I said I love you well I think you knew that I lied But what’s love if not your dream realized? You wanted to hold me I was a child, I was lonely Were you looking to feel like more of a man? Well I grew up despite you, now I’m angry just like you But it’s too late, To take a stand Your laughter was plenty, your music was fine I had only one thing to give for your time So give it I did, and you never asked why The days were easy, but at night I’d cry I had only one thing to give for your time You wanted to hold me I was a child, I was lonely Were you looking to feel like more of a man? Well I grew up despite you, now I’m angry just like you But it’s too late, To take a stand Yea it’s too late, To take a stand Cold bare feet on a wood floor led to a grown man lying in a child’s bed
