I'd Like To Tell Ya Because I Understand

Little boy with the dark hair you bang your head against the wall got  

the phone beggin to see your new baby and the one who already saw  

tears in your eyes the girl doesn't care at all a nurse comes and  

let's you in you have to act older but you don't feel sixteen at all  

I'd like to go d'aw hug you tight and hold you close and say i know  

how it feels to be left behind say little boy i know how it is to cry 

Blonde head wild child acting all hardcore you drank enough to make a  

party for way more than four you totaled your car and act like you  

don't care acting tough i'd like to tell ya girl acting tough don't work  

for me no more I know what it's like to wreck imma wreck in heart and  

mind and I'd hug you tight and not let you drink no more 

Screamin woman saying it's daddy killed your child they're doing CPR  

and won't use lifesupport no more you collapse to the dang dirty floor  

I'd like to tell ya I've had people ripped from me too I've felt just  

like you no one understands let's through your wedding bands I'd hold  

you tight and let me tell ya how you feel about your baby bein gone  

everynight 

I've been there no one understands no one seems to care I'd hold your  

hand and try to help you through it I hate feelin like there's no one  

there 

Twelve year old with the bleeding wrist I know how it is to feel like  

this your momma's yelling and your daddy's rolling his eyes they don't  

understand they should take your hand and say I love you baby it's ok  

you don't have to hide I've seen you cry and I care about you now just  

baby please don't die instead they're yelling and your whole worlds  

crashing down you look so tiny in that hospital gown I wish I could 

hug you and say I know what it's like it was never deep enough to go  

to the hospital but when I got caught that night I know what it's like  

all alone and dying inside can't tell people your age because you've  

got too much pride you care what people think then sometimes you don't  

you just really wanna die 

Little baby your 2 pounds and just opened your eyes the doctor beats  

ya back you breath and sigh little baby one day you may feel you wanna  

say goodbye it's a cruel world so be careful of your mistakes  

everynight regrets stab ya but for now all ya gotta worry about is why  

it was dark and there's suddenly light
