Break The Cycle

Your mother came up to me, 
She wanted answers 
Only she should know, 
Only she should know 


It wasn't easy to deal 
With the tears that rolled down her face 
I had no answers 'cause 
I didn't even know you 


But these words they can't replace 
The life you, 
The life you waste 


How could you paint this picture? 
Was life as bad as it should seem 
That there were no more options for you? 


I can't explain how I feel 
I've been there many times before 
I've tasted the cold steel of my life crashing down before me 


But these words they can't replace 
The life you 
The life you waste 


Did daddy not love you? 
Or did he love you just too much? 
Did he control you? 
Did he live through you at your cost? 
Did he leave no questions for you to answer on your own? 


Well fuck that 
And fuck her 
And fuck him 
And fuck you 
For not having the strength in your heart 
To pull through 
I've had doubts 
I had failed 
I'd fucked up 
I've had plans 
Doesn't mean I should take my life with my own hands 


But these words, they can't replace 
The life you 
The life you waste 


But these words, they don't replace 
The life you 
The life you waste.
