[Verse] In the shadow I wander Past echoes of his name Darkness bears my sorrow For a life filled with blame [Verse 2] Memories haunt my slumber Regret's the song I sing A heart weighed down by thunder Wish I'd changed everything [Chorus] Daddy's tears they fell In the silence I dwell Mistakes carved in the night Lost him out of sight [Verse] Whispers in the dark Laughter turned to cries Lies built in the spark Bound by lonely ties [Bridge] I see the ghostly flicker Of a past I can't erase His life gone so much quicker Blinded by my disgrace [Chorus] Daddy's tears they fell In the silence I dwell Mistakes carved in the night Lost him out of sight
