Lies you tell

The dark shade of gray
its what makes it go away
this shade is not just a color
but how you can feel

you promised he'd come home
but now we're just alone
the man i admired
hadn't come back to me

you said he loved us
i believed you with no fuss
but if he'd loved us
then why did he leave

this new man he is not..
he is not my father
you cant make me happy
do not replace my father
with a man who is despicable
