Little One
Stood at the edge of world and I talk you around.
I couldn't protect you when the world put you down
Your eyes were vacant when you questioned me why
I couldn't' find the words to silence your cries
And somehow I missed
The outwardly signs
Even though I looked
I missed them this time
And I let you down, little one
And I let you down, little one
You curled in a ball on a white leather chair
Your lips told a story and I wasn't prepared
I saw the marks on that porcelain skin
I failed to protect you and let the wolves in
And somehow I knew
It would happen one day
But I didn't predict
It would happen this way
And I let you down, little one
And I let you down, little one
Many years ago I stood on the edge
I tried to recall the wisdom he gave
See a father is nothing but a mortal man
That keeps the wolves away as long as he can
And somehow I know
It'll happen again
Just remember this doors
And let yourself in
And be here for you, little one
Here for you, little one
I couldn't protect you when the world put you down
Your eyes were vacant when you questioned me why
I couldn't' find the words to silence your cries
And somehow I missed
The outwardly signs
Even though I looked
I missed them this time
And I let you down, little one
And I let you down, little one
You curled in a ball on a white leather chair
Your lips told a story and I wasn't prepared
I saw the marks on that porcelain skin
I failed to protect you and let the wolves in
And somehow I knew
It would happen one day
But I didn't predict
It would happen this way
And I let you down, little one
And I let you down, little one
Many years ago I stood on the edge
I tried to recall the wisdom he gave
See a father is nothing but a mortal man
That keeps the wolves away as long as he can
And somehow I know
It'll happen again
Just remember this doors
And let yourself in
And be here for you, little one
Here for you, little one
