[Verse 1]
I know my enemy
And I can't forget his name
Distant memories of a man
That just couldn't change
And though I've tried to set aside
I still carry them today
When I look into the mirror
I can still see his face
[Pre-Chorus]
Oh, Lord
[Chorus]
Don't want to be like my father
I deserved a better man
A bigger man to help me down my road
I cried a tear for my mother
She deserved a better man
A stronger man
To embrace her soul
Ruined by a weaker man
A shallow man
The one who broke our home
[Verse 2]
Though I was a young boy
I can still remember everything
All the booze led to fights and abuse
And I lived through it every day
And though I try to heal inside
My heart is just a vault for pain
I tried to snuff the candle
But I've been burnt by the flame
I know my enemy
And I can't forget his name
Distant memories of a man
That just couldn't change
And though I've tried to set aside
I still carry them today
When I look into the mirror
I can still see his face
[Pre-Chorus]
Oh, Lord
[Chorus]
Don't want to be like my father
I deserved a better man
A bigger man to help me down my road
I cried a tear for my mother
She deserved a better man
A stronger man
To embrace her soul
Ruined by a weaker man
A shallow man
The one who broke our home
[Verse 2]
Though I was a young boy
I can still remember everything
All the booze led to fights and abuse
And I lived through it every day
And though I try to heal inside
My heart is just a vault for pain
I tried to snuff the candle
But I've been burnt by the flame
