My son Chris Mondak, who is a high school junior, formed the rock band NxT with three of his classmates back in August (Chris is a serious musician. For example, he performed at Carnegie Hall last year, he was the bass player this year in the Jazz Band of America where he played with jazz legend Wycliffe Gordon and Grammy winner Shelly Berg, and he'll be working this summer with nine-time Grammy winner Wynton Marsalis).

We’re Through
Your love is just a plant with thorns
A bird that cannot sing
Each time you hear a ringing bell
You crush an angel’s wing
I don’t know how you pulled me in
Perhaps you changed your shape
But now I’ve seen your devil’s heart
And so I must escape
We’re through, you’re always lying
We’re through, my hope is dying
We’re through, this time it’s true
We’re through, I've had enough of you
You only care about yourself
Not those you will destroy
Each time you see an orphanage
You stop to break a toy
You’re bitter on your best of days
And toxic on your worst
The saddened souls who cross your path
Must come to think they’re cursed
We’re through, you’re always lying
We’re through, my hope is dying
We’re through, this time it’s true
We’re through, I've had enough of you
You snared me in my time of weakness
Your cloud of darkness brought more bleakness
I’m done with your contagious sorrow
Yesterday was our last tomorrow
We’re through, you’re always lying
We’re through, my hope is dying
We’re through, this time it’s true
We’re through, I've had enough of you
