The Dash Lyrics

This is a story about a man, and I will explain it the best I can

He was bound and damned by fate

But God's plan never comes too late

Now he takes a look in the mirror

He's so disgusted, it brings him to tears

He said, who's that man looking back at me

When what happened to the one I was trying to be

Oh, there's no room in this world for me

Everywhere I went, oh, I felt like a disease

Yeah, things have changed and I've found my way

Now it's up to me to keep my place

Oh, to keep my place, yeah, to keep my place

Yeah, come on

He said, is it just too late for me

Oh, by the looks of my surroundings, it has to be

Well, I'm sitting alone in a cage

Consumed by guilt and hurt by rage

Yeah, mistakes was made when love was hate

It's time he owns it so he can change

Oh, mistakes was made when love was pain

It's time he owns it so he can change

Little boy says, hey mama, from the picture I look just like my dad

What was it I did that made him so mad

One minute he's here and then he's gone

Oh, and it feels like it's been so long

And I just wonder where he's gonna be

And when I see him again, will he recognize me

Oh, I just wonder where he's gonna be

And when I see him again, will he recognize me

Oh, there's no room in this world for me

And everywhere I went, I felt like a disease

Things have changed, oh, and I've found my way

And now it's up to me to keep my blame

To keep my place, oh, to keep my place

Yeah, to keep my place
