My father gave me some advice

He told me son you wont survive

Unless you earn your dimes and take care of yourself

My mother told me once or twice

To watch my back because my vices come in swiftly

If I'm not careful they might kill me

Do you understand the heartbreak you have caused me

By trying to run my life in being scared

So if you love me

Why don't you trust me

To do this on my own

And if you need me

Why'd you leave me

I'm better off alone

My friends come few and far between

Since I've been living out my dream

How can I trust them

How can I trust them

These days are long this time of year

Tuned by all my guilt and fear

About a future that will never even be here

But do you understand the moments you have cost me

By trying to run my life in being scared

If you love me

Why don't you trust me

to do this on my own

And if you need me

Why'd you leave me

I'm better off alone

Sunday's coming

But I'm not running

Cause I've got all I need
