Lyrics
[Musical Intro] Verse 1) Dad used to laugh, thunder in his chest Strong hands that built, never needed rest Now his smile's a ghost, eyes hollow and dim What happened, Dad? Where's that twinkle within? She came along, young and full of charm But her touch was a curse, a slow burning harm (Chorus) She took your laughter, your spirit, your fight Left you a shell, a hollowed-out light A trophy, a conquest, a fortune to drain You could've at least put an apple in his mouth The way you stuck him like a pig and watched him drain out [Key Change] [Tempo Change] (Verse 2) Big house, fancy car, a life built for two But the diamonds turned cold, the love turned untrue She chased younger eyes, a heart that wouldn't rust Left you with the bills, the memories, and the dust Empty bank account, a heart filled with lead Should have seen the warning signs, the words left unsaid [Build] (Chorus) She took your laughter, your spirit, your fight Left you a shell, a hollowed-out light A trophy, a conquest, a fortune to drain Could've at least put an apple in his mouth The way you stuck him like a pig and watched him drain out (Verse 3) I see you now, Dad, shrunk and so frail The life she promised, a twisted, rotten tale But I'm here beside you, hand in shaky hand We'll weather this storm, rebuild from sand Maybe not a laugh, but a glimmer of light We'll find our own way, and make this thing right [Outro] (Chorus) She took your laughter, your spirit, your fight Left you a shell, a hollowed-out light A trophy, a conquest, a fortune to drain Could've at least put an apple in his mouth The way you stuck him like a pig and watched him drain out
