I’m breaking too

When dad left you suffered
Like I’ve never seen you do 
Fighting back angry tears
As you broke the news

Told us earlier that week
That granddad was ill
Even though we knew it wasn’t true
We went with it still

Fighting back and grasping tears
Trying out my own head
Watching you struggle too
Made it all lose sense

I’d never seen you cry 
Now that’s all I see you do
Fighting back my anger inside
To stay strong for you

When dad left I couldn’t feel
Like there was nothing I could do
Cause although you were struggling
I was struggling too
Euan never spoke a word
He thought it was a joke
And suddenly I realised
I was watching him break too

Now I’m lying on my floor
Figuring out what to do
As I cry myself to sleep
Knowing it’s all true

No one wants to believe the things
They know are the truth
But when someone else says it
It make it’s all come through
Dad cheated and lied
And torn up the walls I knew
The structure and reality came crashing through

My family was breaking but I was breaking too

My dear Berty

Falling through a field of flowers
As a garden of love grew
childhood led me here
“Love me” I belowed

Let me into your life 
And lead me to your heart
I’ll help you discover yourself
I promise

“I love you, I love you”
I beg you come back
Please follow me softly
I’ll help you my love

He doesn’t talk
He doesn’t cry 
I want to listen
But he won’t tell me

Listen to my heart beat
That’ll calm you down
Oh my dear Berty 
“Love me” I belowed
