blacksburg, va, 2007 - imperfect lyrics

[verse 1]
change
it’s a funny thing
how it sneaks up on you, and makes memories feel a lifetime away
i remember that day
it began like any other
till shots were fired at the campus… people dying and ducking for cover
but you didn’t go in that day
and i was just glad you were safe
i never could’ve imagined how this would impact me in such a m-ssive way
till a few days later
you said the world was gonna end
and i didn’t believe you but honestly for us it did
cause nothing was the same after that day that we left to give you a break
in a few weeks we thought you’d be fine
that’s how long we had planned to stay
but those weeks turned into months
and mom knew she’d have to explain
that we couldn’t go back just yet
cause she knew that it wasn’t safe
but i never understood back then why we couldn’t be a family again
i missed having a father i missed being a son
but i didn’t know what you had done
i’m not so clueless anymore
i know the things that you said to her
i see now we were under attack
so don’t you dare ever come back

[verse 2]
i always wanted to believe that you cared about us as a family
but after all the facts you denied
you wouldn’t swallow the pills or your pride
and i thought that you would be back some day
and i thought that we would end up ok
and we did but we did it without you
we got away from the lies that constantly came from your mouth
every time someone asked about us
you told the story of the helpless victim who was done wrong
but now i’m writing this song
to show the truth about the so called victim who covered up the truth with his foolish decisions
and i swear to you now that i want to be rid of the lies that you shoved in our faces. i remember nights crying and thinking i could not replace this hole that was made when you were gone but there’s no more tears only hate in this song
and i’ve heard all your threats
but if you ever touch my family
i swear i’ll make you regret it
so just stay away. all you’ve caused is pain and i’m sick of the way that you say we are. in these years that we’ve been gone i’ve realized how far that you are from the truth every time your lips start to move
it honestly makes me sick all the things that you’ve said
and every time the thought comes to my mind it fills me with dread
to think you were my father
i say “were” because i no longer see you as such
through this pain i’ve grown stronger
cause i finally found a father that i can trust
a father that i can trust
