Emotionless Lyrics
Hey dad
I’m writing to you
not to tell you, that I still hate you
just to ask you
how you feel
and how we fell apart
how this fell apart
are you happy out there in this great wide world?
do you think about your sons?
do you miss your little girl?
when you lay your head down
how do you sleep at night?
do you even wonder if we’re all right?
but we’re all right
we’re all right
chorus:
it’s been a long hard road without you by my side
why weren’t you there all the nights that we cried
you broke my mother’s heart
you broke your children for life
it’s not ok,
but we’re all right
I remember the days, you were a hero in my eyes
but those were just a long lost memory of mine
I spent so many years learning how to survive
Now, I’m writing just to let you know that I’m still alive
the days I spent so cold, so hungry
were full of hate
I was so angry
those scars run deep inside this tattooed body
there’s things I’ll take, to my grave
but I’m okay
I’m okay
chorus:
it’s been a long hard road without you by my side
why weren’t you there all the nights that we cried
you broke my mother’s heart
you broke your children for life
it’s not ok,
but we’re all right
I remember the days, you were a hero in my eyes
but those were just a long lost memory of mine
Now, I’m writing just to let you know that I’m still alive
yeah, I’m still alive
sometimes…
I forgive
yeah and this time
I’ll admit
that I miss you, said I miss you
Chorus:
it’s been a long hard road without you by my side
why weren’t you there all the nights that we cried
you broke my mother’s heart
you broke your children for life
it’s not ok,
but we’re all right
I remember the days, you were a hero in my eyes
but those were just a long lost memory of mine
Now, I’m writing just to let you know that were still alive
and sometimes
I forgive
and this time
I’ll admit, that I miss you, miss you
hey dad
I’m writing to you
not to tell you, that I still hate you
just to ask you
how you feel
and how we fell apart
how this fell apart
do you think about your sons?
do you miss your little girl?

This song is something i'd write to my father but i don't have the courage. Some times i think he's not so bad. then something happens and i hate him all over again. the thing i like about this band is the fact that they have lived everything they sing about.
yeah this song does show how someone elses life can be worse... or EXACTLY THE SAME...!!! this song i can relate to perfectly... the song says it all... nothing else needs to be said.
God Bless
It's spelled 'Emotionless' NOT 'EmotionAless'
Morons.
to me this song pretty much sums up what happened and is happening still in my life when my dad walked out on us almost 3 years ago. i think emotionless is about a dad that was the most amazing dad to anyone, and someone that can be looked up to by his kids. One day he left and everything changed. when he left, it left a permanent scar on his family; when he left, it hurt so much, it left them broken and forever changed. it seemed like he didnt care about them, and like he moved on without a second thought. life since he left has been so hard to manage, and cope with but they do. . sometimes they might think that maybe now i could see him or have a relationship with him again, but then he goes and fucks things up again. through all of the heartache and his mistakes, and the way he treated them there is a part of them that will always miss him, because hes their dad.
Emotionaless, to me it's about the father he never had, yet deep down he still wishes he knew....Kinda sad but it makes you realize that your life isn't half as bad as someone elses.
this song really gets to me... i dunno its just really well done. i love the way he sings it. its a really good song all together... i hope they release this as a single sometime
where did you get this song from?
hey where can you download this song? i've looked on kazaa but its not there...
i love when at the end he like coons 'hey dad' its really nice.. anyway this song makes it more then clear that when their dad walked out it affected them alot. they have quite a few songs that are about just him... the song is self explanatory, no secret meanings or anything...
ok, lets make it clear to everybody here that these songs are not out yet. you can not get them on Kazaa or anywhere else yet.I guess they have just managed to grab the CD before anybody else. :)
