Oh Johnny boy I ask you where the hell you been?
Drinking your way through ya life since you were just 16
God bless you I feel ya pain you wanted to be seen, to be heard
Born into a world that's not designed to suit the soul
You chose the things to numb it all instead of letting go
Now it bites you on the arse and it came to blows
You've had enough
It's ok remember as you cry
Did your best with the tools had at the time
No regrets as you turn on the lights
Don't be scared now you learnt how to love
The parts of you that you used to hate the most
Some may say you ended on a high
Oh Johnny boy I ask you how did you get by?
I know you had to do the things you did just to survive
Craving a connection with every single line
Oh how you craved
Mama looked after you the best that she knew how
Giving so much love to you but passed her traumas down
That little boy in you he did not understand he took it all
It's ok remember as you cry
Did your best with the tools had at the time
No regrets as you turn on the lights
Don't be scared now you learnt how to love
The parts of you that you used to hate the most
Some may say you ended on a high
Whistle
Oh Johnny boy I ask you how ya feeling now
A chapter closes in the story of that broken life
Know that i am with you but for now I say goodbye
I wish you well
