Ode To My Family

post #356

That angry little boy had grown up. He became a cold, skeptical man. He successfully built a thick wall around him, almost impenetrable one that kept him in his cold comfort. He learned the lessons in life all by himself without any guidance from the supposedly figure. He watched enviously as other boys grown up with that luxury he could never had. Sometimes he wished that things had been different...But if it had been...he wondered if he'd be the man he was...perhaps better? bitter? or worse?

As he walked on the street of his life, he sang this song....


The Cranberries - Ode To My Family

Understand the things I say,
Don't turn away from me
'Cause I spent half my life out there
You wouldn't disagree
D'you see me, d'you see
Do you like me, do you like me standing there
D'you notice, d'you know
Do you see me, do you see me
Does anyone care

Unhappiness, where's when I was young
And we didn't give a damn
'Cause we were raised
To see life as fun and take it if we can
My mother, my mother she hold me,
Did she hold me when I was out there
My father, my father, he liked me
Oh he liked me, does anyone care

Understand what I've become,
It wasn't my design
And people everywhere think
Something better than I am,
But I miss you. I miss
'Cause I liked it, I liked it
When I was out there
D'you know this, d'you know
You did not find me, you did not find
Does anyone care

Unhappiness, was when I was young
And we didn't give a damn
'Cause we were raised
To see life as fun and take it if we can
My mother, my mother she hold me,
Did she hold me when I was out there
My father, my father, he liked me
Oh he liked me, does anyone care , does anyone care?
