So many years have passed
So many lives have flashed
Since he was young and free
Since he had time like me
Mistakes have plagued his life
Kept hope just out of sight
Forced to an endless light
Always pushed to a fight
Trained by madness
Taught by sadness
Dreamed his last breath
Just can't take it
He finally met her
Still much too clever
Still so consumed with love
Held her too high above
Too many words that
They just can't take back
She taught his children
just how to trust him
Trained by madness
Taught by sadness
Dreamed his last breath
Just can't take it
I love you daddy
It's not so bad
I know that nothing
Feels worth than sad
I love you daddy
I'll be there when
All you can think of
Is giving in
You gave me a gift
You heard my voice
Taught me to speak from within
Gave me a choice
She is your gift
She'll hear your voice
If you'll just speak from within
Give her a choice
Trained by madness
Taught by sadness
Dreamed his last breath
Just can't take it
I've been trained by this
