A Let Down Lyrics by Spring Offensive

A Let Down

2009

All that I can teach you is
The loneliest darn soul
Stand by the mirror
Hold yourself in your arms
But I only see a coward
When I look into the glass

Oh, brother, teach me how to grow

If I close my eyes again
I will picture someone else
A boy less afraid
Of the shadow of himself
Or the child that grew up
With better mental health

Oh, brother, teach me how to grow

This could've been you
It should've been you

I know more about myself
In these long, long nights when
You stood by my bed
Tried to hide from the lights of the sun
She would teach us
That we are not so bright

Oh, brother, teach me how to grow

This could've been you
It should've been you

I think I dreamt you up
On a tired afternoon
I think I made you up
I think that I have failed you

I will never take your hand
And you will never hear me say
That I am guilty
In every single way
But I wish that you were here
To tell me I will be okay

Oh, brother, teach me how to grow

This could've been you
It should've been you
