There Was a Kid (Part 2) - Hawthorne Heights

There was a kid who was raised by television

Had an alcoholic father who died from bad decisions

He swore he’d never drink so he’d never end up like him

He didn’t know his father cause he couldn’t break the cycle

There was a kid who grew up in a trailer

His mother worked so hard but still she felt like such a failure

He swore he’d make it out & when he did he’d come & get her

He’d pack up all her things so she could live a little better

There was a kid who had goals & bigger dreams

Headed in the wrong direction looking for a different scene

Trying to find another kid who’s clinging to a rope

So he taught himself to sing but all he found was hope

Sing a song of hope

Sing a song of hope

It’s all I really know

Sing a song of hope

«hope means you really want someone to come back»
