LAYTON HOWERTON
IT'S A BITTERSWEET LEGACY YOU LEFT ME TO FIND
EVERYTIME THAT I FALL I FEEL YOU PUSH FROM BEHIND
18 YEARS YOU BEEN GONE
18 YEARS YOU'RE STILL AROUND
HOW CAN YOU MOVE ME SO MUCH
FROM A HOLE IN THE GROUND
IN THAT SMALL FRAME HOUSE ON THE BIBLE BELT
I DIDN'T KNOW WHO YOU WERE
I NEVER KNEW HOW YOU FELT
NOW I'M PAINTING THIS PICTURE
AND I DON'T KNOW THE TRUTH
DID YOU DO WHAT YOU WANTED
OR WHAT YOU HAD TO DO
AND THOUGH YOUR BLOOD COURSES THROUGH MY VEINS
I WON'T BARE YOUR CROSS CAUSE I SHARE YOUR NAME
IT'S NOT THE WAY WE DIE IT'S THE WAY THAT WE LIVE
AND I CAN'T TELL ANYMORE WHO I NEED TO FORGIVE
18 YEARS
18 YEARS
YOU'D SIT AT THE TABLE WITH YOUR SEAGRAMS STARE
WAS IT LOVE OR OBLIGATION THAT KEPT YOU THERE
I TRIED ALL YOUR PRESCRIPTIONS FOR EASING MY PAIN
WHISKEY DRUGS AND WOMEN AND THEY ALL FEEL THE SAME
AND THOUGH YOUR BLOOD RUNS THROUGH MY VEINS
I WON'T BARE YOU CROSS I WON'T SHARE YOUR SHAME
IT'S NOT THE WAY WE DIE IT'S THE WAY WE LIVE
I CAN'T TELL ANYMORE WHO I WANT TO FORGIVE
18 YEARS
18 YEARS
I STILL NEED YOU OLD MAN
