Arrested Development

Opening the door to the past, there was no one home

Nothing new to see, no family, it's hard to believe

That you leave them kids behind while you go and find yourself

You're the one they cannot find, no helping hand or hand to guide, you didn't even try

Arrested, development, a grudge to hold, a deep resentfulness

Please understand, you went and played your hand

I only played the hand that I was dealt

Years have now gone by, bathed in tears that I have cried and yet I'm still not clean

And now you say it's not so bad, the holidays and parties we had don't make up for much

And you seem to just decide what was real and what is lies, so much for memories
