Faulted - Never Were Flesh

Where were you
When I needed you the most you were only a ghost
Never Were Flesh
Left me alone head in a mess
I had to empty the nest
Tighten the screws
The ones that were loose
Shit if you only knew
Shit if you only knew
And where were you
When I needed you the most you were only ghost
Nah Never Were Flesh

Remember thinking to myself that you'd come back again
But you never did and that absence fucked up my head
Left me feeling overwhelmed and ugly underneath my skin
Listening to these savage voices scattering deep within
A kaleidoscope where only broken dreams and questions live
This nemesis of men where twisted visions never end
It is what it is like the slaughter of kids or tumbling bricks
Maybe one day we'll learn how to forgive and we could make amends
But until then, I'll take it in my own hands walking this path
Burning bridges to black yeah shattering glass every time I get mad
This fucked up quest of a mad man
On the search for a Dad that I fucking wish that I had
Just wish I could be sad but the anger has stained me
And I just stay angry
Now have I gone insane in the skin that I'm staying In saying

Where were you
When I needed you the most you were only a ghost
Never Were Flesh
Left me alone head in a mess
I had to empty the nest
Tighten the screws
The ones that were loose
Shit if you only knew
Shit if you only knew
And where were you
When I needed you the most you were only ghost
Nah Never Were Flesh

Prodigal journey in the desert afflicted
Mental health with an addiction, old traumas is the sickness
Why have you forsaken me
Won't take my calls I'm taking these
Popping pills for the anxiety
Wake me up cause I can't sleep
I got no peace, anywhere inside my rib cage
All that I feel is rage
Need to breathe in it's been days
Forever in darkness shit all that I see is night
Used to believe in light
Now all I wanna do is ignite
Setting fire to everything that caused me pain
You can make my ending the same
Liberated by flames
So sick of banging my brains on the fucking bricks that I lay
And where were you
Said where were you
When I needed you the most you were only a ghost
Never Were Flesh
Never Were Flesh

And where were you
When I needed you the most you were only a ghost
Never Were Flesh
Left me alone head in a mess
I had to empty the nest
Tighten the screws
The ones that were loose Shit if you only knew
Shit if you only knew

And where were you
When I needed you the most you were only ghost
Never Were Flesh
Never Were Flesh
