| We’re taught unconditional love
|
| That blood is thicker than water
|
| That a parent’s world would revolve
|
| Always around their son or their daughter
|
| You pretended I was your own
|
| And even believed that you loved me
|
| But were always threatened by some
|
| Invisible blood line that only you could see
|
| You took advantage of an outreached hand
|
| And twisted it to meet your every need
|
| ''Gimme time to re-charge my batteries
|
| I’ll see her when she’s older and I’ll bounce her on my knee''
|
| Well listen to me you ungrateful fool
|
| Here comes a dose of reality
|
| You’ll go to your grave a sad and lonely man
|
| The door is now closed on your pathetic little plan
|
| On and on and on and on it goes
|
| It’s so easy to run away with nothing in tow
|
| How can you ever sleep a wink at night
|
| Pretending that everything is alright
|
| And have the nerve to blame this mess on me?
|
| Never in my life have I seen someone
|
| So ignorant to the damage he has done
|
| You’re the rotted root in the family tree
|
| Yeah
|
| I tried your 4 bill therapy
|
| I tried to make amends
|
| But nothing could lure you out of your selfish shell again
|
| Expecting everyone to bow and kiss your feet
|
| Don’t you see respect is not a one way street?
|
| Blaming everyone for all that you’ve done wrong
|
| I’ll get my peace of mind when you hear this song
|
| On and on and on and on it goes
|
| And with every passing day true colors show
|
| How can you ever sleep a wink at night
|
| Pretending that everything is alright
|
| And have the balls to blame this mess on me?
|
| Never in my life have I seen someone
|
| Oblivious to the damage he has done
|
| You’re the rotted root in the family tree
|
| Yeah
|
| Watch where you walk
|
| Don’t you dare cross the crooked step
|
| Watch the way you talk
|
| Don’t cross the crooked step
|
| On and on and on and on it goes
|
| Chauvinistic, heartless, selfish, cold
|
| How can you ever sleep a wink at night
|
| Pretending that everything is alright
|
| And have the balls to blame this shit on me?
|
| Never in my life have I seen someone
|
| So fucking blind to the damage he has done
|
| You’re the rotted root in the family tree
|
| Yeah |
