Um Par

Even when he gets what he wanted,
When he has it, he doesn't want it
Finds something new on TV
What he can't have
And stops liking
Lets go of what he already has
Then starts to love
Everything he didn't win

Give a reason to believe again
In the latest trend
That you bought like zero plus ten
A gift for me

But if I ask
Where did this kindness come from
You'll shout
Saying you're a grown man, I don't know
Oh, do me a favor
At least tell me what it was
And if I failed to explain to you
Say that we've always been
A pair

He goes out on Sunday saying it's the day to play
But what game, I don't know
Stays until Monday as the day breaks
And no trophy is seen

Enters without speaking
Leaves running and comes back again
Without greeting
Doesn't even seem like that
I pray, oh God in heaven
Or someone on the ground
Tell me what it was
That I missed
What I can't understand is
How is it that my child is so different
From me
Help me understand.
