Tim Cohen - Child of Divorce

I walk down Baker Street until my feet are broken
Sit on the curb and
clench my fist, and try and keep my features frozen
I was yours and you were mine
But I build walls and you draw lines
And what is the cost?
The child is lost.

But I build walls so you could sleep.
And your lines can cut so deep.
Illusions of misery blind us both.
Who here's brave enough to save the father first?
Faith unspooled us in reverse. Loyalty, trust, and I conversed.
All his renderings have no
worth.

I walked down Baker Street until my hands were frozen.
Loveliness just followed me as if I had been chosen.
Open doors and
you go hide. Behind blinds that you have drawn.
But what is the cost?
A child of divorce.

How many more remain in me?
I'll be forced to disappear.
Confusion and disarray bind us all.
Who here's brave enough to save the father first?

Faith unfurled us in reverse
Fools keep saving up to paint the master's work.
All his renderings have no worth.
