I Know

You left me here without a word.
I never knew but now I've heard.
And though it all seems so absurd
I know.

Where would we be if I had known
all the things that were never shown
why is it now that I am grown
or was that meant to be?

Kings and Queens, Pawns and Knights
Wills and ways, wrongs and rights
Now I am the day and you're the night
In time.

Of mice and men and the best laid plans
There's no one here who would understand
No one knows just who I am
I'm the last in line

I've done many things since you've been gone
and done my best to carry on.
You would be proud of your son
I know.
