lyrics

The imagination given from me to you is never meant to be born
in every rose your mother plant you to be the fucking thorn
that had never been what your father wanted you to
no matter how hard you had tried to walk in his shoes

Its the matter of fact that you are the victim of mum and dad
you always wanted to be the best but thrilled never to be
praid to god night over night and cried on your knees
"make me feel better im gonna be a good child please"

God left me young ,thats what i noticed soon
i worked hard against my will to help my old man
but look you are called dumb and fucked up again

Its the matter of fact that life is hard to live not beloved
but if defiance is all you get from dad by the age of nine
you keep telling yourself all the time the very the same line
"dad never meant it this way and everythings okay"

Now and then families get fucking wasted
and i know because i ve been through that way
they scream and yell till your little sister starts to cry
but you are there to hold her down to tell her lies

Its the matter of fact that everything passes on
the good days and the bad but memories stay forever
and to the best you can let them be your mentor
