Dysfunctional Domicile

After school my stomach sinks From the thought of just how much he drinks Broken home broken dreams Mom and dad forsake the family thing So I slither in up to my room alone Shut the world outside and rot inside my headphones Nothing matters to the wounded mind of a child Who becomes a victim of the family home defiled I've been there once before Today the child is you Sacred vows are torn in two Then he drinks himself to sleep each night And dreams of how it could have been She stays away and hates the day She'll ever have to see his face again Good enough for them is Good enough for me cause I treat myself just the way that their vow does now Nothing matters to the wounded mind of a child Who becomes a victim of the family home defiled I've been there once before Today the child is you Sacred vows are torn in two The pain has passed and now I see That bitter roots can down the biggest tree The broken home within my soul is buried now Forgiving grace I know Good enough for them ain't Good enough for me cause I don't treat myself the Same way their vow was now Cause that ain't good enough for me
