Lyrics

Cary told me about his dad How he'd kick him and bash his head He'd wait and listen for when the car squealed in And cried "God where were you?" Cary told me the words he'd use Stupid, worthless, a mistake, a fool How could a father break that golden rule God where were you? I tried to defend you, though he never asked I tried to explain you, it was theories and graphs I had no answer, the same question myself God where were you? Cary's grown now, his kids are friends with mine He' a loving father who broke the cycle Maybe love redeems, in the end hope wins Tell me Father, does it have to be like this? God where were you?
