Life Without My Hero

Imagine for one moment That nothing could go wrong Everything so perfect Family ties so strong That’s when it shreds you From inwards way out Happiness is your weakness Doom will find you, no doubt It will outcast your loved ones As quick as a “how are ya, hi” Strike, their out, so quickly You don’t even get to say goodbye Then the question lingers In a swelling part of your brain “Is my life worth living… Without them helping me refrain?” He promised me a promise He would protect me all my life Well now he’s gone, and left me. Go ahead, and unsheathe your knife. I have to endure life without him now My Dad, My Superman If only he knew the pain I’m suffering He would hold my small face in his big hand OH Dad, I need that nurture, Some thoughts I must exclude Suppress the darkness where I’ve been For, I can’t stand it without you -Miranda Lambert-
