Like Father Lyrics by Altered State

Altered State

1991

And as I sit and try to sort it out my first instinct looks for the voice to shout
I thought for sure that well before the end you'd hold me in your arms, your boy again and we would be just like it’s supposed to be
I had a dream once but now it's gone
Still as my father's heart lost as the setting sun
I had a dream once but now it’s gone
Please excuse me I can't understand why you were the type of man you were
I guess your children just weren't in your plans your parents must have done a job on you I wish you knew my biggest fear is mine did too
I had a dream once but now it's gone
Still as my father's heart lost as the setting sun
I had a dream once but now it's gone
I still remember violent echos through the halls and all you promised father you didn't even call and how the pain that tore me down put up these walls
I had a dream once but now it's gone
Still as my father’s heart lost as the setting sun
I had a dream once but now it’s gone
