BARRICADES
(Meyer/Mjornheim/Gibson/Lervik)

In a strangers eyes a glimpse of an older me
Jamie Meyer: Gone Crazy!

You were supposed to pick me up every other week
When the door bell rang ten years old grabbed Mamas' hand
Said "It'll be alright, you'll see"

All these years I've been mad as hell
Where were you when my world rose and fell
Bet you didn't have a chance to get me to understand
With everyone chasing you away

Truth is you never faded
Iv'e laid down my defenses

Everyday she cursed your name but thats just Mama'
And all my life I've been wanting to tell ya' been longing to know ya'
Not angry no more, I'm breaking down this door
Iv'e seen the change, I believe in better days
Let's kick down the barricades

Sometimes life gets you caught in the fire and you're helpless
Every now and then you'll get burned to the bone
It's never too late to ask for a little forgiveness
Don't be afraid to come back home

So pour another cup
Sit right there Dad, listen up

Everyday she cursed your name but thats just Mama'
And all my life I've been wanting to tell ya' been longing to know ya'
Not angry no more, I'm breaking down this door
Iv'e seen the change, I believe in better days
Cause I know..

Theres many things that you regret
My sister she ain't over it yet
Standing here right now
Two men with a similar smile

Everyday she cursed your name but thats just Mama'..

This child had faith
Even when you fell from grace
Let's kick down the barricades
