Lyrics
She knew it more then
Just the physical
There where spiritual lessons
Passed on from ancestors
He thought he taught her how
To properly fit in
In a world full of wicked men
And citizens only play pretend
Scratches on the wall
Counting as the days pass
After all it wouldn't
Really be the same
Things they learned in school
Corrupted innocence
No wonder why they shake and shiver
When there intimate
What's a man to do though
He tried to be the father figure
With no father there to help
Figure it out
Imagine that the plant didn't grow
If the soil is the soul and there is
Nothing that we're talking about
I mean there really wasn't
Much of a conversation that they had
Hard to contemplate it
When the father was fuming mad
And when he calms down
Still a stranger
Confused by this world
And it's visions of grandeur
We've been down this road before
Was at one point so sacred
Lost our touch with the family tree
No matter why it's forsaken
Fathering is not something
Perfect men do
But something that perfects the man
Hook in the fish mouth
An eye for an eye leaves
Both of them blind
They where the perfect poster child
Wonder why he always
Walked around
With a Poker Face
Smoldering
Got him by the balls
No wonder why he holding them
Older men never really knew
The situation the kid was in
Gilligan lost on a island
That's all pretend
Then again it's real
They say they wanna heal
They got a big deal
Records gonna blow
Next thing you know
The city is golden
Got the keys to it
It all unfolding
No longer folding In on it self
Honest help is hard to tell
It's gotta be some one else
Who's the culprit
The anger meets the ego
That's the anchor
Confused by this world
And it's visions of grandeur
We've been down this road before
Was at one point so sacred
Lost our touch with the family tree
No matter why it's forsaken
We've been down this road before
Was at one point so sacred
Lost our touch with the family tree
No matter why it's forsaken
We've been down this road before
Was at one point so sacred
Lost our touch with the family tree
No matter why it's forsaken
