I was there
When Dad told me to hold you tight
Take the baby and run
The house like a light
And on the night
My childhood for a gun
I was there
On Christmas Eve with no Dad
You wanted to know why
I didn't want to make you sad,
Tell you everything was bad
I just didn't wanna try
I was there
When Stanford called your name
You and Dad fought
It was such a shame
Nothing will ever be the same
Until that demon is caught
I was there
When you called out for Jess
On the ceiling, burning
Our lives are such a mess
But this I must confess
Sent my stomach churning
I was there
Boarding Death's train
Dad was happy to see
His life drain
Through the heartache and pain
He saved me
I was there
When you were grabbed
By Yellow-Eyes
You were stabbed
Your life dripped and drabbed
Cause of the demon we despise
I won't be there anymore
A cross roads deal
A kiss to seal
Your life to restore
A year, no more
The hellhounds will come
And there is nowhere to run
I will die
But promise that you will not cry
I will stay
In your mind
And in your heart
So that one day
You'll look back and find
True happiness from the start
