Insomnia
When is daddy coming home?
What you mean we are done?
Hey sweet dream
Send me a sign
Hey sweet dream
Send me a sign
I remember it all
When's daddy coming home?
Me and my brothers saying
'Yay daddy's back from work'
Then momma wouldn't hug him she said she never loved him
Daddy looked at Mommy disgusted
The necklace he bought her he chucked it
Then Mom shoved
Daddy went to the room in the back now daddy's really sad
He told Momma again he loved her
Then he tried to leave she kept pulling him back
Now me and my brother are crying
Daddy said he needed to go for a drive and he felt like dying
From the look in his eyes daddy wasn't lying
He left for a night but it felt so wrong
I was watching Youtube trying to keep little brother calm
Then daddy came back and drove us to the beach
We slept in a hotel but daddy didn't sleep
Daddy what's wrong? He said he was thinking about mom
Hey sweet dream
Send me a sign
Hey sweet dream
Send me a sign
I'm sorry Junior I can't make things right
But you remember the times when we were all happy right?
'Cause when I go back and think of my dad and my mom
I only ever remember the things that daddy did wrong
I don't want you to think about your mom like that
She was a beautiful woman who may have gone off track
Although we don't talk just know that I loved her
I could never really hate my babies mother
When I worked on the slope she kept ya'll safe
I like to imagine she's in a better place
I know you miss your home your house with the pool
And all your little friends that you had at school
But now we're on our way back to the Vill
Where we can drive a boat or slide down the hill
Although we may not always have time to grieve
Just know that daddy's never gonna leave
(Hey sweet dream)
See the problem with going numb as a coping mechanism is you (Send me a sign)
Can't be selective with your numb if you numb yourself to the pain (Hey sweet dream)
You also numb yourself to any chance of being happy
Really I just want to sleep (Send me a sign)
Insomnia questioning what's wrong with ya
Should I deal with the heartbreak or prolong the buzz
I'm tired of every action being so damn monitored
I hate it here and to make things clear
I'm tired of reminiscing on my wasted years
Pacing heart racing with fear that my kids could be taken
I'm flaking out on every opportunity it's lunacy
How my mind keeps going back to you and me
I loved you but couldn't deal with the truancy
I just want somebody to be true to me
Mention the boys and they losing me
I know heartbreak fluently swipe left they ain't choosing me
Looking at my son like damn I produced a G
And I will never I will never I will never leave
Because my dad left me
I know things could be better
Teaching my three year old these letters
For them I'm gonna keep it together
You'd have to be smoking Chrome to call my house a broken home
Looking at my lonely phone wishing I could stop the unrest
I stopped being numb never stopped being dumb yet
Before it goes down gotta make sure that my son set
Hey sweet dream
Send me a sign
Hey sweet dream
Send me a sign
What you mean we are done?
Hey sweet dream
Send me a sign
Hey sweet dream
Send me a sign
