Son lyrics

Listen up and take a minute, I need to tell you why

I do the things the way I do and weeks are flying by.

I'm trying to fill a void in my life these days

by filling it with work and work, and accomplishments and praise.

Anything that keeps me busy,

anything that keeps me up

'cause if I start to let it out,

I think I'm never gonna stop.

Afraid I'm never gonna stop.

Listen up and take a minute wherever you are,

I've been mourning you with the bottle and with my guitar.

For this song I sat myself

down to put in words

what's underneath and what's unsaid;

how much this whole thing hurts.

How much this whole thing hurts.

Listen up, just take a minute, I need to tell you why

I do the things the way I do so months are flying by.

Since you're gone it isn't always easy,

all I do is run,

but the hardest part,

the hardest part

was growing up your son.

Was growing up your son.
