Mother
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
Mother
Tell your children not to walk my way
Tell your children not to hear my words
What they mean
What they say
Mother
Can you keep them in the dark for life
Can you hide them from the waiting world
Mother
Father
Gonna take your daughter out tonight
Gonna show her my world
Father
Not about to see your light
But if you wanna find hell with me
I can show you what it's like
Till your bleeding
Not about to see your light
But if you wanna find hell with me
I can show you what it's like
Mother
Tell your children not to hold my hand
Tell your children not to understand
Mother
Father
Do you wanna bang heads with me
Do you wanna feel everything
Father
Not about to see your light
But if you wanna find hell with me
I can show you what it's like
Till your bleeding
Not about to see your light
But if you wanna find hell with me
I can show you what it's like
Till your bleeding
Not about to see your light
But if you wanna find hell with me
I can show you what it's like
Till your bleeding
Not about to see your light
But if you wanna find hell with me
I can show you what it's... Like
