The Gloom Lyrics by VIOLET GRIM

2020

If my father only knew
The ways I hurt myself, the ways I used
Scraping coke out of the grout of the tiles
Library card in use every day for the lines
If my father only knew
The things I learned, the ways I grew
Alone on the bathroom floor at 2AM
Realizing this is no way to live
He wouldn't be so disappointed in me
If he knew it was more healthy
When I started only drinking
He'd say, "Sweetie, I love you, you're doing great"
The things I'd kill for now to hеar him say
But I know he doesn't feel that way, I know he doеsn't feel that way
I wish I could tell my dad that I longer do any of that
But I don't think he'd believe me if I did
I'm better now, but I guess love was the bargain
If my father only knew
The things I thought of in the gloom
He'd be shocked that I'm above my tomb
And I like to imagine, he would say
He'd say, "Sweetie, I love you, you're doing great"
But I know he doesn't feel that way, I know he doesn't feel that way
He'd say, "Sweetie, I love you, you're doing great"
I just wanna hear that again
