Foster Child

from Monsters Talking by Pocket Vinyl

/

lyrics

His hand in my palm, and her remains calm

I could crush it if I so willed

Have I turned my back on him? Am I even part of the equation?

Does this concern me?

And I saw the fear in her face it was clear as the paranoid lift in my brow

But he needs a father and the real one won't bother to recognize that he needs help



What is my influence? Is it more than his parents?

Oh God, let it be please

So many factors can make him a ruthless man

I hope her learns to forgive and is wise



And oh, the 6th child to be taken away from her

To see life devoid of her destructive behavior

And I can see the future if he stays up here

As if the candle's already been snuffed



Given the same life, I would snuff it out

Given the same life, I could snuff it out

Given the same life, I might snuff it out

Given the same life, I won't snuff it out
