Can you hear me?
Am I getting Through tonight!?
Can you see me?
Can you make ME feel alright!
If you can hear me,
Would you take my pain away?
See, I'm not just anyone...
I'm Your Son!
Down on my knees again tonight.
Wishing that all would feel alright.
See, I was a boy that needed help.
She's done all that mom can do herself.
And she's growing tired.
I'm sure you don't understand.
Each night as she sleeps,
I go in and hold her hand
And she tries
Not to cry..
As the tears fill her eyes.
Can you hear me?
Am I getting Through tonight!?
Can you see her?
Can you make HER feel alright!
If you can hear me,
Let me take her pain up now!
See she gave me life and a brother,
She's my mother!
Sometimes, late at night, when I sleep,
I dream of the boy I'd like to be.
I've tried to be strong but have fallen through.
Dad, who I need right now is you...
And I'm growing old.
Living life with fear.
My brother and I cry
living without you here.
He's so tired...And I'm scared...
Let us know..That you're there...
Can you hear me?
Am I getting Through tonight!?
Can you see HIM?
Can you make HIM feel alright!
If you can hear me,
Would you take his pain away?
See, He's not just anyone...
He's Your Son!
Son, I'm afraid that times are hard.
I never meant to give you a life so scarred.
Your better off without me holding you down.
I know you'd be weak if I was around.
I've prayed for you boy.
I've drank to forget your hurt.
I've done this to help...
If only you could hear me words
when I cry...And I pray
Look to God...and I say...
Can you hear me!?!
Am I getting through tonight!?!
Can you see HIM!?!
CAN YOU PLEASE MAKE HIM FEEL ALRIGHT!?!
If you can hear me,
Let me TAKE HIS PAIN AWAY!!!
See he's not just anyone...
HE'S MY SON!!!

People make poor decisions in life, they do things unknowing of it's true consequence and/or flaws...it's truly a shame but generally it's always respectable when people can rise up to their doings & take responsibility as best they can. I find it quite distasteful when the children end up falling into the parental role but alas, what happens, happens. It's tough. Best wishes to those in pain out there.
Good write too, I liked the form you used. You can definitely sense an emotion of true suffering in the worst ways. Thanks for sharing :] -
