It's Been so Long |
| I don’t know what I was thinking |
| Leaving my child behind |
| Now, I suffer the curse and now, I am blind |
| With all this anger, guilt and sadness |
| Coming to haunt me forever |
| I can’t wait for the cliff at the end of the river |
| Is this revenge I am seeking |
| Or seeking someone to avenge me? |
| Stuck in my own paradox, I wanna set myself free |
| Maybe, I should chase and find |
| Before they’ll try to stop it |
| It won’t be long before I’ll become a puppet |
| It’s been so long |
| Since I last have seen my son |
| Lost to this monster |
| To the man behind the slaughter |
| Since you’ve been gone |
| I’ve been singing this stupid song |
| So, I could ponder |
| The sanity of your mother |
| I wish I lived in the present |
| With the gift of my past mistakes |
| But the future keeps luring in like a pack of snakes |
| Your sweet little eyes, your little smile is all I remember |
| Those fuzzy memories mess with my temper |
| Justification is killing me but killing isn’t justified |
| What happened to my son? |
| I’m terrified |
| It lingers in my mind and the thought keeps on getting on bigger |
| I’m sorry, my sweet baby, I wish I’d been there |
| It’s been so long |
| Since I last have seen my son |
| Lost to this monster |
| To the man behind the slaughter |
| Since you’ve been gone |
| I’ve been singing this stupid song |
| So, I could ponder |
| The sanity of your mother |
