4arm - My Father's Eyes

it's ok, i know they made you
it's not your fault but i'm confused all the same
back then, all i wanted
was the time to shine but they held your eyes
and now i can't remember
a single time we spent together just you and i
years pass, now i'm older
and i'm the opposite of everything you are now

take what you want from me
the ashes of a childs dream
just don't take my fathers eyes off me
there's no apology
or any way to comfort me
skeletons of humanity have conquered

take down, mass hysteria
the influence of political dimentia
stone cold, nothing prospers
and we're there ones who break our backs and fuel their greed
i'll bring disorder
and make waves just to justify the lesser kind
tolerate, no longer
show you now how to go through life on hands and knees

i never asked for this
never wanted this
but i need you now
now

take what you want from me
the ashes of a childs dream
just don't take my fathers eyes off me
there's no apology
or any way to comfort me
skeletons of humanity have conquered

you can't tell me
this is how it's
supposed to be

wasted years
inside your hell till
i could not breath
no more, no more, no more, no more!

all this shit's just
too damn much now
things have to change

been fighting so long now
everything's numb
i must break away

take what you want from me
the ashes of a childs dream
just don't take my fathers eyes off me
there's no apology
or any way to comfort me
skeletons of humanity have conquered

it's not ok, i fucking hate this
so sick and tired of the same ol' shit
dragging me down
it's useless, a sick joke it seems
and you should see yourself this way it's pathetic

my fathers eyes
