Lyrics

[Verse 1: Grey Ghost, Grey Ghost & The Kin] I'll always remember the moment it happened Remember the place in my room I was standin' She came in and explained she was leavin' I was just a kid, so I didn't understand it My sister pleaded with her not to leave But she walked out the door of this mansion I looked down the hall and I saw my dad With his head in his hands, he was crushed by the sadness He'd always play, what was it? "The Day You Went Away" by Wendy Matthews I guess that he thought it would rain on the On the day that it happened See, dad's mum died when he was young So he knew what it was like to be abandoned Now I know that mum gave him chances But he stepped forward and two steps backwards Just remember the house was so damn still When the waves came crashin' On the day that it happened On the day that it happened, yeah [Chorus: The Kin] I can't believe the lives we're livin' I can't believe those times we're missin' Were you hypnotised or missing With the whole damn thing? [Verse 2: Grey Ghost] Ay Ayo, our concept of love is created by the ones Who bring us up through an age where we take it all in So when you see that broken down right in front of your eyes It's messed up, I don't know where to begin I know way too many of you out there can relate To what I'm sayin', we're the most complicated generation Might sound like complainin', first world kids But in truth is fucked up, no matter where you is In my case, my mum [?] hooked up with a fuckhead Since then had much less success than she deserves You don't know just how deep it burns To know she's seen it worse, that's why I need this verse Came to me with a black eye when it went down I was like: "Where is this guy? He fucked up now" (Where the fuck is this guy?) But he's the father of my half brother and sister Who I've held on to so tightly I got blisters And it might be that fact that I see so much of me in them That I don't want 'em to see the places I've been So I try to keep them undercover from the pain But it's kinda like tryna stay dry within the rain [Pre-Chorus: Grey Ghost] Kinda like tryna stay dry within the rain Kinda like tryna stay dry within the rain [Chorus: The Kin] I can't believe the lives we're livin' I can't believe those times we're missin' Were you hypnotised or missing With the whole damn thing? I can't believe the lives we're livin' I can't believe those times we're missin' Were you hypnotised or missing With the whole damn thing? [Outro: The Kin] Oh Were you missing? Were you missing? I miss you
