Depot Street - Ali

{Verse 1}
My father said be a ray of love
I'll tell you a story about who I was
A drunk but a working man, worked to the bone tonight
Three hungry kids think I'm on my way home
Rain struck my windshield, my optics were flood
As I chose to make hate bridge my last place on earth
I sped toward the barricade, hollow vein struck
But what really kills me is how they will grow up

{Verse 2}
My Ali sleeps in her cot nice and soft
And her dreams exist on the same plane as my flood
She dreams up a giant huge yellow big sponge to soak up
All the pain from which she was born out of

{Verse 3}
I slammed on my senses, I camе to my brakes
As my tires ripped pavеment and tore through concrete
I just started wishing I was with Ali
Just-a-kissing her cheek while she solemnly sleeps
But alas your father is a liar, a cheat
And he’s doomed to repeat all this hypocrisy
He couldn’t love you, even if he tried
So he lies awake thinkin’ ‘bout leaving every night

{Verse 4}
The impact flipped the car off of its feet
And Ali met dad as she left her car seat
Tossed around bottles and half-eaten works
Ali died long before hate bridge could hurt her

{Verse 5}
My father said be a ray of love, I'll tell you a
Story 'bout who I am
A drunk, not a worthless man, worth every bone. Tonight
All of my kids know that I'm coming home
