Lyrics

We lost my dad
To a hungry root
It held our home for a ransom too high
He'd never have had me if he knew he'd die so young
If all there was
Is an empty room
With no pictures and no window glass
How would I know that I had a face at all
How could I know that I'd leave you all behind
And you were made to follow boy
Don't mistake your fears for a natural cool
And you were born without that scar
If you get too caught up it's gonna chance who you are
And so away my son
Into the never was
It's like the weight future growing out of control
How could I console when you made me a liar
How could I touch you when you're made outta fire
And you were born without that scar
If you get too caught up it'll change who you are
And you were made to follow boy
Don't mistake your fears for a natural cool
Someday I will tell you how I made it out alive
it occurred to me just as I was coming down the drive
How could I know that I'd leave you all behind
So what weighs more
To a dying man
Is it the teaching of lessons
Or the holding of hands
And is it such a waste
The keeping up that face
Let's die together and be rid of this place
You shoulda trusted me to be who I am
