Take Your Time

I lost my father
When I was just twelve
It was tough for me to take
Cause you're needing guidance
Especially as a boy
At such a young age
But there was nothing that I could do
Nothing would bring him back
So I sat there with the pain
And a big hole in my brain
I'm trying to figure out
How to fix it

And you're never gonna stop the hurt from coming
You might just learn to change how you feel
And that's alright for now
But maybe you should
Take your time and learn how to heal

I've been addicted
A couple of times
Putting more holes in my broken mind
It was supposed to be a way
For me to get away
Just a little easy escape
Well let me tell you now
It didn't help that much
It left more things for me to pickup
And now it looks like
My brains a minefield

And you're never gonna stop the hurt from coming
You might just learn to change how you feel
And that's alright for now
But maybe you should
Take your time and learn how to heal

I've met so many broken people in my lifetime
All of them are haunted by their pasts'
It's ok it all happened long ago
And if you know that it isn't so bad
