C
Unwanted but breathing
In the next room sleeping
Am
My mother shes crying
And my fathers been drinking
C
In our rundown apartment
Where the roof is still leaking
Am
Hes cursing and cussing
Its just the whiskey talking
F Am
And Ive got lots of memories like this one
F C
Of empty days and nights spent tired and lonesome
Dm
When I think back to all of it
F
Its all too much
Oh its all too much when youre just a little kid
C Am
C
My little brother just a newborn baby
Am
In the image of my mother says hes a blessing
C
But not to my father oh how he hates him
Am
An undeserving mistake He calls him a burden
F Am
And Ive got lots of memories like this one
F C
Of picking sides and picking fights between them
Dm
When I think back to all of it
F
Well its all too much
Well its all too much when youre just a little kid
F C F C
And when I wake up in the morning it all feels like a bad dream
F C F C
One that follows you and haunts you endlessly
F
Yeah haunts me endlessly
Well broken and beaten from the abuse and the cheating
Am
The addiction and the lying and the promise of leaving
C
While my old man was a bastard I admired and loved him
Am
And us two kids we were born in to a family not a fortune no
C Am
C Am
