[hometext] => We all go through tough times with our parents, but just remember: No matter how you feel about them, they love you and you wouldn't be here if it weren't for them. So tell them how you feel before it's too late.
[bodytext] => I remember all the times That I would drown out my nights With one too many drinks And I’m sorry for all the things I did And said to you I owe my life to the both of you The patience you’ve kept And passed down to me Gives me the strength To deal with almost anything And I’d deliver a bloody fist To those who would destroy it The love you’ve given me Is a perfect example of unconditional And I’ve often failed to return the favor. For some reason I’ve never been able To open myself up to you And for that I blame myself… Mother and I would sit and watch the rain Pour down from a humid Florida sky And it’s those rare days that I cherish most And father; your ability to make the best of everything Is a gift I’ll forever thank you for Every waking moment I wish you were less like strangers And I know that this is somehow A mistake that I have made For some reason I’ve pushed myself Away from you And this is hard for me to change If only I could reverse time If I could somehow bridge this gap If this were easy for me I wouldn’t bother writing this And I’d tell you how I feel face to face But I’m sorry that I’m weak So I wrote this for you.
