Howard's Tale
guitar chords lyrics
Age 5, just a little boy shy
Is he ready for the big surprise
He'll be playing lego in a dream
When the shadows come to life
Age 9 and he should've been fine
With a secret he's sure to keep
Two times had to tell a little lie
For the sake of him and me
Now it's over
I need closure
Hey, look what you did to me
When you were taking me home
Getting me stoned
Leave me alone
I waited for mom to comfort me
Getting me stoned
Leave me alone
I waited for mom to comfort me
But when I opened my mouth
Don't say nothing, shhh
Age 12 and it isn't going well
Now it's 3 years to the day
Confused, but unlike you
This feeling won't go away
16 and the woman down the street
Has invited him to come inside
The first time, it didn't feel right
It'll be the last time he tries
Hey, look what you did to me
When you were taking me home
Getting me stoned
Leave me alone
I waited for mom to comfort me
But when I opened my mouth
Don't say nothings wrong
I won't say nothings wrong
I won't say, I won't say
I won't say, I won't say
I won't say, I won't say
17, all he's ever seen
Is the living in between the lies
It's kind of funny how a mind
Can keep living in denial
18 is a very strange scene
He's still playing with the past
Expelled, maybe someone could've helped
If someone had known to ask
Hey, look what you did to me
When you were taking me home
Getting me stoned
Leave me alone
I waited for mom to comfort me
But when I opened my mouth
Don't say nothing, shhh
19 and he's innocently
Parked right beside a school
He stares at a boy sitting there
And the boy stares at him too
He walks over
He needs closure
