Man of the House

The grass is tall
The chandelier's still broken
But time moves on
And I'm left hopin'
You'd walk through the door
I hear your boots on the floor
I run down to say hi
But there's nobody there
No sound of your voice
I know I don't have a choice
Believe me I know

I'm the man of the house now
I've got something to prove
I'm the man of the house now
Stepping into your shoes

In these four walls
Life feels frozen
You left me alone
Now I carry your burdens
Everyday we're apart
There's a tear in my heart
You didn't say goodbye
No it's not your fault
And if the phone rings
I'll answer and say
No he's not home

I'm the man of the house now
I've got something to prove
I'm the man of the house now
Stepping into your shoes

I'm the man of the house now
I've got something to prove
I'm the man of the house now
Stepping into your shoes

I mowed the lawn
I paid the bills
I took the trash out
Now I know how it feels
That shitty car, gave it brand new wheels
I know you'd be proud

I'm the man of the house now
I've got something to prove
I'm the man of the house now
Stepping into your shoes

I'm the man of the house now
I've got something to prove
I'm the man of the house now
Stepping into your shoes
I'm the man of the house now
