Parrington - What Will It Take

You know your Daddy he is weak he chose the bottle for life
Hiding addiction you can’t look in his eyes
When he’s lying, denying he’s killing himself
You’re sick and tired of offering help
Your daughter tried everything from cocaine to meth
And she Od’d in her lovers bed
She’s hardly surviving and pregnant again
No one can tell how this story ends
What will it take
For you to finally awake
What will it take
To realize our mistakes
So what will it take
Oh you better start to swim or you’ll sink like a stone
You know there’s violence in your own home
To live with this man is pure agony
But there’s no reason to bear this misery
Oh Governor Governor people are sick, we are sick
Lead in the well poisoned our kids
It was greed greed greed guiding your way
We got to live with that every single day
What will it take
For you to finally awake
What will it take
To realize our mistakes
What will it take
Hey what will it take
For you to finally awake
What will it take
For you for us to see
We only know when it’s too late
So what will it take
When will we awake
So what will it take
Realize our mistakes
So what will it take
When will we awake
So what will it take
Realize our mistakes
