Solitude

Edwin McCain

5

Tell me why he's a good friend

Yeah he was a brother of mine

Nothing there coming but soupy roads

Kids wasting time

We were prisoners of our youth

We were growing up strong

Till the day he was taking away

For he something he did wrong

Ohh alright

Tim came around just the other day

Boy he had some stories to tell

And his momma kept him locked up in rehab

Although the doctors said he was well

He said yea I been through the anger

And the hatred soars my mind

I put on that, they had me

Just tell me what it was like to go to your prom

And he said thank you mom

For fixing my clouded broken mind

Excuse me if I seem a little rude

Woooaahhhh

Well I was missing my childhood

My brother and my crying

You enjoy the convience of my solitude

Of my solitude

Well growing up these days just seeing them there

No well these kids are doing the best they can

So mother you better think twice

Before you lock your kid up

And throw away the key

Soon your little boy's gonna be a man

Woooaaahhh

And he said thank you mom

For fixing my clouded broken mind

Excuse me if I seem a little rude

Wooaahh

Well I was missing my childhood

My brother and my crying

You enjoy the convience of my solitude

Of my solitude

Tim left town just yesterday

And he left me these words

He said yeah I know this life's got a lot to give

Ohh and my childhood is gone and I'm not afraid to die

Well I grabbed real whole lotta hope that I'd live

And he said thank you mom

For fixing my clouded broken mind

Excuse me if I seem a little rude

Well I was missing my childhood

My brother and my crying

You enjoy the convience of my solitude

24 months of solitude

I didn't ask you for the solitude

I can't forgive u for this solitude
