Lyrics

You brush their hair, tell them what to think of me
Fold your stories into every goodnight prayer
I see my face in the drawings that they bring
But the eyes look scared, like they're asking what to believe
Are you stealing half my home one soft word at a time?
Turning bedtime into courtroom, every weekend feels like trial
I hold them close, but they look through like I'm fading off the page
I'm still their dad, I'm still right here
But I can feel you pulling me away
You say I left, leave out every time I stayed
Show them shadows of a man you've remade
They ask me once, "Daddy, did you really choose to go?"
I swallow glass, say, "Ask me anything you wanna know"
Are you stealing half my home one soft word at a time?
Turning bedtime into courtroom, every weekend feels like trial
I hold them close, but they look through like I'm fading off the page
I'm still their dad, I'm still right here
But I can feel you pulling me away
Maybe I lose, maybe you win
Maybe they'll grow and see through this
'Til then I write little notes in their bags
"I love you always," hope they read between the gaps
Are you stealing half my home or just renting out their trust?
Will they ever get the full truth or just your anger dressed as love?
I hold them close, they still lean in
But something's slipping when they stay
I'm still their dad, I'm still right here
Praying love outlives the games you play
