Memories Deceive

Here's to being young
Ten years old but I was someone and
Here's to life's simple charm
Heaven on earth at Grandpa's farm and
Here's to when I would run
When it was 3-0 and I still swung and
Here's to being brave and dumb
Just say the word and I would jump
Now memories deceive, but those days I felt free
Life was grace and confidence, I wasn't stuck in between
There was no waging war in our family
We were free
We were free
Here's to changing times
Tears just fall and I don't know why and
Here's to straight up mess
What is this feeling, is it hopelessness?
Here's to numbing pain
I've got screens to scroll to distract my brain and
Here's to another lie
Yeah I'm good yeah I feel fine
Now memories deceive, but I wish that I was free
Like the days when we were depression-less
Why can't I be innocent?
God I hate this war, its killing all our dreams
Can we be free?
Can we be free?
Now son, look up
You are not alone
Your pain
Your heart
It is not unknown
I see you
I love you
I'm so proud of how you've grown
You're free, can't you see?
Your life comes from me
Your memories deceive 'cause you don't remember me
I've never let you go and I won't for eternity
I won that waging war hanging on a tree
You are free
You are free
You are free
You are free
