The Toughest Kids

The ground beneath your feet
Will fucking cave in
Stand up and speak
This is the consequence of being weak
I've spent so many years blaming myself
For how you ran away
And left me growing up alone
I was just a kid. And I was all alone.

I never felt like I had a place to call home.

Have you ever lost faith in yourself
For only a blink of an eye?
We sing this song for families
Who stand strong.

When the weight of the world caves in
The strongest one will win
We sing this song for every loving heart.

I am ashamed of what you have become
How could you lower yourself like this
You had people around
Who cared about you deeply.

I know the person that you really are
I've seen the love that you carry around
I miss your comforting words
Your heart could move a mountain.

Have you ever lost faith in yourself
For only a blink of an eye?
We sing this song for families
Who stand strong.

When the weight of the world caves in
The strongest one will win
We sing this song for every loving heart.

And as seasons change
And as time will drift away
I will remember you
My heart will stay the same.

This is the sound of forgiveness
But I know you'll never hear this song alive
This is the sound of forgiveness
But you will never hear this song alive.

I will carry your absence with me
Until the day I die.
