Lyrics

Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah
You must promise you will never speak again of this to me
'Cause I could never look my son in the eye
And tell him just exactly what his daddy did
With the souls of all the broken ones
I could never understand exactly why
You had feelings for this worthless human flies
When I looked into your eyes
At night, I felt like I could
Yes, it's true, I wanted to be like you
Yes, I know, I could never be like you
And I saw them kneeling there
To their god on his back throat
And I started to see you shying away
From all the angels
It'll never be the way it was again, you couldn't see that I
Treated you just like a son
And if I held others just like you
It's only because I created them an equal
I could never understand exactly why
You would spit into your loving father's eyes
You're my father, how am I
Supposed to say I'm sorry?
Yes, it's true, I wanted to be like you
Yes, I know, I could never be like you
And I saw them kneeling there
To their god on his back throat
And I started to see you shying away
From all the angels
I forgive you
Don't you know?
I just don't care
I could never be the one, ever be a son
I could never be the father, I could never be
I could never be the one, ever be a son
I could never be the father, I could never be
I could never be the one, ever be a son
I could never be the father, I could never be
I could never be the one, ever be a son
I could never be the father, I could never be
No, no
