SomeTimes Wearing Both Capes Is Hard But I Could Never Let Them Down

Three Hundred Sixty Five

That's How Many Days

Are In A Year

Three Thousand Two Hundred Eighty Five

That's How Many Days

It's Been Since

We Created Life

Nine Years

That's How Much Time

I've Spent

Wearing Both Capes

I Know To You

That Sounds Like A Lot

But To Me

It Feels Like A Lot

Struggling Alone

Crying Alone

Hustling Alone

Praying Alone

Never Getting A Break

Never Allowed To Fail

Three Hundred Sixty Five

That's How Many Days

They've Got To Eat A Year

Three Hundred Sixty Five

That's How Many Days

They Like To Hear BedTime Stories A Year

Three Hundred Sixty Five

That's How Many Days

They Have To Be Loved A Year

Three Thousand Two Hundred Eighty Five

That’s How Many Days

Ive Had To

Cook

Clean

Provide

And Protect

Regardless Of How Weak

I Feel Most Days

Three Thousand Two Hundred Eighty Five

That’s How Many Days

I Stayed

While You Hid

I Know It Doesn't Matter To You

But

We Cried

We Didn't Understand Why The Phone Never Rang

We Didn’t Understand Why We Weren't Enough

We Counted The Days

We Hoped For Your Return

Three Hundred Sixty Five

That’s How Many Days

You Miss Every Year

Three Hundred Sixty Five

That’s How Many Days

I Give Them My Whole Heart A Year

Three Hundred Sixty Five

That's How Many Days

They'll Always Have Me A Year

No Matter What
