lyrics

Father,
oh father,
where were you
when I needed to
protect myself from
my mothers energy?

Father,
oh father,
where were you
when I needed to
become a part
of reality?

Father,
oh father,
who dared to
take away your
vigor from the
man I want to be?

I alternate between the days
as with my needs I change my face
I’m fearful either or detached,
with everyone and none I match,
as I learned many ways.

Father,
oh father,
what kind of
power would
allow me to
grow up without a guardian?

Father,
oh father,
a boy inside
a man cannot
be held
to standards of a warrior.

Father,
oh father,
on whom can I
impose a sort
of justice that
will remedy my anguish?

I hate the world that eats the lie,
I’m sick and beaten and denied
the chance to live a childs life
by a world that buys the mask
I wear for people I despise.

Father,
oh father,
there was no one
to be proud of
me when I
kissed the girl I loved.

Father,
oh father,
where are the
adventures that I
saw on television,
where is my life?

Father,
oh father,
would you please
come tell me that
there’s time for me
to grow up and be strong?
