Erika
A tourist drive
Turns to a metal cage
But you make it out
And 3 lives are saved
You get cut from the car
And she is cut from you
To discover a world
You didn't want her to
And you're watching me
Watch your misery
Through drug stained eyes I see
How cruel life can be
And he's gone
As I lie and watch you break
Much more than he could take
I need to know how you are
It's been 22 years
Must've drank a million beers
I need to know how you are
Yeah your daughter must be grown
Could be living on her own
I need to know how you are
Can't hold her or her picture
A spine they couldn't fix
I need to know how you are
Oh Erika
Oh Erika
Oh Erika
Oh Erika
The night brings drugs
And your new baby
She needs you now
More than you need to be
She's the only one
That will visit you
Now click for the nurse
To show you what to do
And you're watching me
Watch your misery
Through drug stained eyes I see
How cruel life can be
And he's gone
Well does she ever see her dad
Or he's the one she's never had
I need to know how you are
I guess you finally made it home
Couldn't do it on your own
I need to know how you are
Yeah just how many days
Has it been you feel ok
I need to know how you are
Cause to me you're always there
A broken mess in that wheelchair
It can't be how you are
Oh Erika
Oh Erika
Oh Erika
Oh Erika
Oh Erika
Oh Erika
Oh Erika
Oh Erika
Turns to a metal cage
But you make it out
And 3 lives are saved
You get cut from the car
And she is cut from you
To discover a world
You didn't want her to
And you're watching me
Watch your misery
Through drug stained eyes I see
How cruel life can be
And he's gone
As I lie and watch you break
Much more than he could take
I need to know how you are
It's been 22 years
Must've drank a million beers
I need to know how you are
Yeah your daughter must be grown
Could be living on her own
I need to know how you are
Can't hold her or her picture
A spine they couldn't fix
I need to know how you are
