[00:07.52]Silhouettes above the cradle hold me down
[00:13.83]They won't let me go the wrong way
[00:20.58]My mother taught me all the fables, told me how
[00:27.34]In the end all the sinners have ta pay
[00:33.43]But...
[00:33.87]I don't wanna live like my mother
[00:38.66]I don't wanna let fear rule my life
[00:46.50]And I don't wanna live like my father
[00:51.83]I don't wanna give up before I die
[01:00.43]
[01:06.42]He worked so hard his bones are breaking
[01:10.45]He wore them down but long ago he lost the feeling
[01:19.49]His good intentions leave me shaking, show me how
[01:25.81]I don't ever want to end up like he did
[01:32.22]And...
[01:32.77]I don't wanna live like my mother
[01:37.45]I don't wanna let fear rule my life
[01:45.50]And I don't wanna live like my father
[01:50.73]I don't wanna give up before I die
[01:58.57]
[02:05.21]When I have kids
[02:08.15]I won't put any chains on their wrists, I won't
[02:18.28]I'll tell them this
[02:21.44]There's nothing in this world that you can't be if you want it enough
[02:29.92]
[02:32.75]I don't wanna live like my mother
[02:38.20]I don't wanna let fear rule my life
[02:45.82]And I don't wanna live like my father
[02:51.16]I don't wanna give up before I die
[02:59.22]I don't wanna live like my mother
[03:04.33]I don't wanna let fear rule my life
[03:12.38]And I don't wanna live like my father
[03:17.40]I don't wanna give up before I die
