lyrics

Verse1:

1992 he gets onto a train
She wakes up at 4AM on Christmas Day
He doesn't know that, he has single handedly
Destroyed another life, years down the line

Chorus:

How could you say that you mean well?
When you don't know what it means to be a
Father, well I 
Can't believe that you'd just go and 
Abandon us, left us to 
Die with no contact and nowhere 
Else to turn, it's time for us to learn

Verse2:

She did try her best, looking back on those hard times
Three jobs and a kid that mainly stayed inside
We never did hear from that man again
I sincerely hope he's already dead.

Chorus2:

How could she say that he means well?
Cause she don't know what it means to be a father, well
I can't believe that he would just go and
Abandon us, leave us to
Die with no contact and no where
else to turnits time for us to learn.

Chorus3:

I know that he didn't mean well
Cause he won't know what it means to be a
Father, and
I can't believe that he would just go and
Abandon me, leave me to
Die with no contact and no where
Else to turn, and now I'll never learn
