You take a look around your house
You see the broken door and
That window you taped some time ago
You feel the fight still hanging in these walls
All the blame all the shame you can easily recall
But the thought of losing him
Will turn your stomach to stone
Youâve tried everything; the hard way, the right way and oh, the gentlest approach
Youâve tried to say it in all possible ways
But it still wasnât good enough
Ohoh, heâll come clean in the end Thereâs no sword above you You know that he loves you
Boysâll be boys and they sure make noise
Heâll explode into violence
Then leave you with the silence
Searching for tools that can mend your heart
His youth seems to tear you both apart
Guess they all kick and scream âtill they reach thirty
And it somehow all falls into place
But stick with him like my mother did with my brother
When he got into trouble for so many things
Your sonâs not as lost as you may think
Ohoh, heâll come clean in the end Thereâs no sword above you You know that he loves you
Ohoh, donât try to understand Just know that he loves you Thereâs no sword above you
Oh, you just wanna leave it all behind
So the walls can forget what youâve seen
Hmm, you wanna start over thatâs not a crime
But itâs not in your hands
In the end all it really takes is time
Ohoh, heâll come clean in the end Thereâs no sword above you You know that he loves you
Ohoh, donât try to understand Just know that he loves you Thereâs no sword above you
