Bad luck seems to follow me Cruel words choke the air I breathe Can’t stand to even look at me Father listen to me Closed your ears to the things I say Closed your eyes to the child in pain One day I’m gonna blow you away Mother listen to me Show the scars that you cannot see Can’t hold the pain locked inside of me Closed my eyes Buried me alive Wide awake and dead Burned my soul from the life I’ll never know Wide awake and dead Crucify me for the words I speak Close your eyes and pray your soul to keep Don’t know how you can even sleep When the sky is falling down Let you conscience spread its darkened wing Forgotten child and its suffering Deceit is quiet but the truth can sing Mother listen to me Sow the things that you can’t reap Can’t hide from the things you did to me
