Nightshade Anthem - The Damage Is Done

Описание: Nightshade Anthem – The Damage Is Done | Official Lyric Video

“The Damage Is Done” tells the story of growing up with an empty space where a father should’ve been.
Broken promises, unanswered questions, and the kind of silence that follows you into adulthood.

This song is about a kid who kept believing.
About waiting for someone who said “I’ll be back” and never showed up.
About carrying that absence for years, until it turns into anger, numbness, and finally the need to speak.

It moves between confession and confrontation.
Memories you don’t want, thoughts you can’t shut off, and the moment you stop protecting the lie and start telling the truth.

There’s no forgiveness here.
No clean ending.
Just a voice letting it out before it eats him alive.

If you’ve ever had to grow up without closure…
If you’ve ever learned the truth too late…
If you’ve ever felt like the damage was done long before you understood it…
this one’s for you.

👉 Watch if you’ve ever been left behind and had to raise yourself.
🎧 Feel the rage, the numbness, and the truth that finally breaks free.

#TheDamageIsDone - #NightshadeAnthem

I had a father once and he was larger than life
My Superman and taught me wrong from right
Now I have trouble trustin' anyone I like
I'm scared of the dark
I can't sleep at night

He disappeared one day without so much as a letter
Left me with my mom so I try to be better (human)
He said one day:
"Son we'll be back together
When the things calm down and the world gets better"
(liar)
Now I'm thirty-four I think he was a liar
His word is only worth the money that you wire
You'd think I would've learned my lesson by now
But here I am same place, writin' it down
I can't tell my mama 'cause it makes her frown
So I'm tellin' y'all
I'm lettin' it out
This is the truth
The pain of my youth
I'm lettin' it out fellas
The damage is done

I was made to believe
I was born in a noose
Like I should've been dead
Like my birth was a fluke
So I have to think that he was not my dude
I have to heal the wound
I have to face the truth

You left me in the fire then called it love
I carried your blood, dad, I feel so numb
You can't call me son
So I'm tellin' y'all
I'm lettin' it out
The damage is done
The damage is done

Dunno, maybe
he's just some drunk man that met my mammy
She was tryin' to get it in
She was tryin' to have me
So he hit it one time and left with a baggie
'Cause he never gave her money
never called and never had me
She was too busy playin’ saint for his past
I was the result of two strangers that smashed
A baby of convenience
And that was that
So they came up with a story 'bout how he was the man
'Cause that's what makes the world go 'round
You either sink
or you swim
or you drown
The same goes for me and you now
I made it out
And I'm tellin' you how

You left me in the fire then called it love
I carried your name, man, I feel so numb
You can't call me son
So I'm tellin' y'all
I'm lettin' it out
The damage is done
The damage is done
The damage is done
