Afec - With a heavy heart Lyrics

In the depths of the night he carries his pain
A father torn apart by loss and disdain
His children once his joy now lost in the fray
Poisoned by lies led astray
The government's failure a bitter pill to swallow
Made the situation worse left him hollow
People's judgment like daggers in his soul
Looking at him for a situation beyond control
Oh father in the shadows you stand
With a heavy heart in a broken land
How can you find happiness in the face of despair?
When life's burdens seem too much to bear
Years have passed but the pain remains
Like a relentless storm it endlessly reigns
How can he move forward when the past holds tight?
How can he find joy in the absence of light?
The laughter of his children a distant memory
Lost in the echoes of what used to be
He longs to be happy again to feel whole
But the scars of the past take their toll
Oh father in the shadows you stand
With a heavy heart in a broken land
How can you find happiness in the face of despair?
When life's burdens seem too much to bear
But amidst the darkness a glimmer of hope
A chance to rise above to break free and cope
To let go of the pain that binds him so tight
And embrace the possibility of a new light
So he takes a step forward with courage anew
Knowing that healing won't happen in a day or two
But with each small victory he finds his way
To let go of the past and seize the day
Though life may still be a struggle with trials to face
He holds onto hope in the darkest of space
For happiness may seem elusive but it's never too late
To find joy in the journey to rewrite his fate
Oh father in the shadows you stand
With a heavy heart
