Everything Is A Distraction

from Growing Pains by Faintheart

/

lyrics

If I fall far from the family tree
Does that make me a bad seed?
When the roots grow deep
What do you think of me?

Heavy is the head that wears the crown
All these thoughts that weigh me down
Am I going to let you down?

I didn’t choose to bear the name
But I still carry all of the shame
From the ones that we love in heaven above

Are we more than the things we’ve done?

I want an answer for the cancer
That grows inside my father
I appreciate your prayers
Is anyone listening out there?
There’s a block around his heart
The doctor says we’ve got an early start
Not an early grave
Your love is still the same in this prodigal mess I’ve made
Your love is still the same.

Heavy is the head that wears the crown
I’ll do my best not to let you down.
