[00:37.96]You gave me good steps to follow
[00:41.04]and I wish I could fill your shoes.
[00:45.79]I wish the apple fell closer to the tree.
[00:55.36]You gave me a branch to perch on
[01:00.55]but it's time for me to take control.
[01:05.03]This isn't about you, just gotta try life on my own.
[01:13.25]
[01:15.70]And when I see fathers proud and smiling
[01:19.48]I choke from shame and grief,
[01:24.43]and only wish I could be a source for your relief.
[01:34.48]
[01:38.00]We've both done each other so much wrong.
[01:41.63]I've made mistakes too big to fix.
[01:46.18]And maybe regardless of what I want,
[01:50.86]we just don't mix.
[01:55.82]
[01:57.15]And if you knew about my songs
[02:01.08]maybe this would mean something to you.
[02:06.39]The only thing I care about,
[02:11.09]the only thing that I wanna do,
[02:15.51]the only thing that sets me apart,
[02:20.53]the only thing that makes me me....
[02:26.15]Slowly spelling out my heart,
[02:31.72]for everyone to read.
[02:36.91]
[02:39.36]And I'm sorry that I hurt you,
[02:42.68]and I'm sorry that I let you hurt me,
[02:48.12]but your little girl
[02:52.40]is gonna change the world.
[02:58.04]You'll see...
[03:07.88]you'll see.
[03:15.25]
