This Isn't The End

An eight year old boy had a panic attack
'Cause the father he loved left and never looked back
No longer the hero he counted on

He told her he loved him and then he was gone

He tried to look happy in front of his friends
But knew that he'd never feel normal again
He fought back the tears as they filled his eyes
And wanted him back just to tell him goodbye

When the rain falls down
When it all turns around
When the light goes out
This isn't the end

His dad was a good guy that everyone liked
But nobody knew he was dying inside
He promised his family they'd be alright
And then with a gunshot he left them behind

When the rain falls down
When it all turns around
When the light goes out
This isn't the end

When the rain falls down
When it all turns around
When the light goes out
This isn't the end, no.

The role of a father he never deserved
He abandoned his son and never returned
And over the years though the pain was real
He finally forgave him and started to heal

How close is the ending, well, nobody knows
The future's a mystery and anything goes
Love is confusing and life is hard
You fight to survive 'cause you made it this far

It's all too astounding to comprehend
It's just the beginning this isn't the end
It's just the beginning this isn't the end
