about

This one is very personal. It's from a kid's point of view when things are not very good at home and how that kid got dragged into family fights and made to choose sides. Terrible thing to expect of a child.

lyrics

Sitting on the Floor
Brent Braniff

Hey everybody my Mother is calling
Wants me in for the night
She needs an ally, Dad needs a friend
They need a ref for the fight

I’d rather be out here
Driving gravel roads
Between the tires and the stones
The lights on the dashboard
Windows rolled down
Instead of the screams and the moans

Why can’t wait till morning
Cause honey there’s a lot at stake
Honey can it wait till morning
Cause I made a big mistake
I’m sitting on the floor
That’s why I’m sitting on the floor

Round one is the drinking two is the pills
Three is the slam of the door
My part is easy…just start some crying
And beat my fist on the floor.

I’d sit on the highway
Thought it was my home
Darkness my only defense
The stars in a black sky
The peace of the night
It’s the only thing that ever made sense
