Oh, to erase the trace of my father in my eyes,
But he lives in my expression, so defensive and indignant.
And the spitting image of him that hides
Growing more and more malignant.
But he lives in my expression, so defensive and indignant;
Covered up in a blanket of good intention.
While growing more and more malignant
And screaming for attention.
Covered up in a blanket of good intention;
I’m cancerous, I’m corrosive.
And screaming for attention
You’re getting too close to this lethal explosive.
I’m cancerous, I’m corrosive;
I hear my father’s words escape my mouth.
You’re getting too close to this lethal explosive
I’m afraid to see you run when you see what I’m about.
I hear my father’s words escape my mouth;
The sleeping giant I can’t push down.
I’m afraid to see you run when you see what I’m about
When you see the lecherous side of me I long to drown.
The sleeping giant I can’t push down;
Can I save you from myself?
When you see this lecherous side of me I long to drown
Will you stay long enough to help?
Can I save you from myself?
And the spitting image of him that hides
Will you stay long enough to help?
Oh, to erase the trace of my father in my eyes.
