[al:New York] |
| [00:06.08] |
The bias of the father runs on through the son |
| [00:23.67] |
And leaves him bothered and bewildered |
| [00:28.61] |
The drugs in his veins only cause him to spit |
| [00:34.08] |
At the face staring back in the mirror |
| [00:37.98] |
|
| [00:40.12] |
How can he tell a good act from the bad? |
| [00:43.30] |
He can't even remember his name |
| [00:47.78] |
How can he do what needs to be done |
| [00:55.21] |
When he's a follower and not a leader? |
| [00:57.75] |
|
| [00:58.30] |
The sickness of the mother runs on through the girl |
| [01:22.18] |
Leaving her small and helpless |
| [01:27.01] |
Liquor files through her brain with the force of a gun |
| [01:31.49] |
Leaving her running in circles |
| [01:36.12] |
|
| [01:38.11] |
How can she tell a good act from the bad |
| [01:41.66] |
When she's flat on her back in her room? |
| [01:46.48] |
How can she do what needs to be done |
| [01:52.36] |
When she's a coward and a bleeder? |
| [01:56.10] |
|
| [02:37.48] |
The man if he marries will batter his child |
| [02:42.82] |
And have endless excuses |
| [02:47.21] |
The woman sadly will do much the same |
| [02:52.93] |
Thinking that it's right and it's proper |
| [02:57.62] |
|
| [02:58.12] |
Better than their mommy or their daddy did |
| [03:03.34] |
Better than the childhood they suffered |
| [03:08.12] |
The truth is they're happier when they're in pain |
| [03:13.39] |
In fact, that's why they got married |
