Daughters

Race, rabbit heart race Red wine coursed through vindictive veins Red river, run Help me forget what I have done And what I've yet to do, Everyone I'll hurt when I've seen this through If I can't cater to the likes of you Who're you to dispute armour of valid truth Seven doors, curtain call Half way around the world I've lost it all Each inhibition, all prohibition Thrown to the wind as a nation listens With their ears to the ground Coveting the forfeit of a crown That doesn't exist With their ears to the ground If you speak of a demon now, It appears. All I've ever wanted was to believe Before my family's eyes are torn from me I'm finding it hard to believe In the things I cannot see (Like I used to) like I did Most days I'm tracking back in torment When I remember when Our innocence quelled ignorance A peripheral indifference Now it's 'fuck that, you made your bed' You think I don't regret what I did to them? I can't take it back and I won't pretend But I'm man enough to have dropped her hands Like I'd said. All I've ever wanted was to believe Before my family's eyes are torn from me I'm finding it hard to believe In the things I cannot see (Like I used to)x3, like I I know I fucked up but I was only a kid, I was too short sighted to see what I did I destroyed what was left of the little you had And now nothing can bring it back
