Don’t Be a Stranger

LETRA

Don’t Be a Stranger

[Verse 1]
All the days passed by me now, fast as hell
And the stakes are too big now to say, "Oh, well"
It's not my time to be a father
It's not my choice and I won't bother

[Chorus]
Everyone's older now
Pregnant and sober now
I have a ways to go
Our parents are underground
Who's gonna hold it down?
I'm afraid to know

[Verse 2]
I'm too immature to wear this collar
I don't brush my teeth, I don't drink water
I lost my chance to hold my daughter

[Chorus]
Everyone's older now
Pregnant and sober now
I have a ways to go
Parents are underground
Who's gonna hold it down?
I'm afraid to know
No, I wasn't there for us
Leaving you both because
I was afraid to find
A reason to lеave my path
"Don't be estrangеd," she said

[Bridge]
I wish I could go back to the start
She has my eyes but she got her mother's heart
I'd watch her in secret, play games at the park
Hiding and seeking just like the adults
And one day, she'll seek me, connect all the dots
And see my face in every picture she got
I wanted to save you, I wanted to save you
I wanted to save you from this

[Chorus]
But I'm just a stranger now
I couldn't hold it down
Maybe I’m made to run
Now she's across from me
Holding her own baby
The way I should've done
No, I don't deserve the love
I couldn't sober up
I'll never make it by
"It’s never too late,” she said
"Don't be estranged," she said
"Don't be a stranger"
