By the Weeping Willow

You were the person
The one to keep me from harm
(We were) easy targets
Attracted by your charm
But it didn’t take long
Before it went wrong
My world was falling apart
A dysfunctional cause
Cutching at straws
You simply broke my heart
I buried my father
By the weeping willows
I put his remains in rusty coffee jar
And all that is left now
By the weeping willows
Are the all the memories
Of the violence gone too far
Innocence lost
Confusing childhood blur
It took me a good while
To see things what they were
Distorted and flawed
The crecking façade
At times I whished you were dead
Damaged goods
Darkness and hide
Rears its ugly head
I buried my father
By the weeping willows
I put his remains in rusty coffee jar
And all that is left now
By the weeping willows
Are the all the memories
Of the violence gone too far
