Baseball Gloves

Seven, William Beckett, Mac Lethal

When I was five years old
I saw my dad on the driveway
And yelled out: "Hey dad
You wanna play some catch?"
I grab my glove and his glove and a baseball
Then went and laid up in the front yard
So I could stretch
He turned around and he walked to me
Kneeled down to my ear and
Then he talked to me
He said "Mac there's something I should
Get clear, might make you sad
But I no longer live here"
I'm sorry for the hardship, I'm
Moving down the street
Son I got my own apartment
And you can come and visit
I'm your parеnt still of course
But your mom and I aren't married anymorе
We were buried by divorce
The love we had has been thrown away
Turned cold, went stale, we have gone astray
I just didn't know what I
Was s'posed to say
So I stood there silent, and he drove away
My mom and dad would barely
Speak again for twenty years
There was so much anger
They would keep within
Until the funeral my dad was
Sitting in the front row
Quivering so humble
'Cause really just a month ago we
Found out she was sick
A month later she went and died
I swear to God the hardest that I've
Ever cried was at the funeral
Face dripping many tears
Dad kneeled to mom's casket and
Whispered in her ear this

I'm always pushing people away
And I can't take back my mistakes
Or all of the penances I didn't pay
There's not a single day that I
Would exchange love of mine
The time of our lives for
A lifetime of asking why

My son is eight years old
He's on the driveway now
My wife's inside the house relaxing
As I'm smiling proud
So I'ma write this down
Then I'ma grab my glove
Then I'ma go outside and play some catching
Show some love i'm proud of us
We made it through the storm
I think it's safe to say we've been reborn
I thought that I was losing you
I thought that it was over
But somehow tearing us apart
Just made us closer i love my parents
But I've learned from their mistakes
And all the turns that you can take in life
They permanently break the bond you have
You go from being happy mom and dad
To you don't wanna see their face
Again until you call the cab
And pack up your suitcase
Searching for that new face
And that new person seems perfect
For a few days then you get a true taste
And realize that you stumbled
Through an open door
And that new someone that you're hoping
For is never gonna come
You fall in love with so many people
But get the same results
From every single one
You committed to forever
But forever isn't done
You can't grow old with someone
When forever acting young
Your children are for so perfect
Then the feeling is so worth it
If we open up your heart
You'd be revealing at it's circuit's
That unless you change
You're gonna struggle for life
Fuck the selfishness
Find the love of your life
And tell them this

I'm always pushing people away, aww
And I can't take back my mistakes (I missed)
Or all of the penances I didn't pay
There's not a single day that I
Would exchange love of mine
The time of our lives for
A lifetime of asking why
