Lyrics
Father Said
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.
Father said, father said
Father said, father said
I used to wake up tied in chains
Anchored down, bound to the floor
I could not escape my fate
There was no way out of that hole
Your pressure, a burden
Underneath the surface
I'll always resent and hold you in contempt
Now that I've grown up, I realize
I lived inside (I lived inside)
A web of lies (a web of lies)
Now that both my eyes are open wide
I see behind (I see bеhind)
Your disguise (your disguise)
In my mind
The voicеs won't end
They repeat in my head
In my mind
I'm under a spell
He won't let me forget
For years, I was locked in a cell
Pretending for your sake I was somebody else
Tormented for being myself
I came to terms with life in a personal hell
You tried to take what's mine
Your need to control
Will be your own demise
Lost in a world of illusions
Consumed by delusions
Alone with nowhere to go
Now that I've grown up, I realize
I lived inside (I lived inside)
A web of lies (a web of lies)
Now that both my eyes are open wide
I see behind (I see behind)
Your disguise (your disguise)
In my mind
The voices won't end
They repeat in my head
In my mind
I'm under a spell
He won't let me forget
For years I was locked in a cell
Pretending for your sake I was somebody else
Tormented for being myself
I came to terms with life in a personal hell
For years I was locked in a cell
Pretending for your sake I was somebody else
Tormented for being myself
I came to terms with life in a personal hell
My father's calling me
And I can't turn away
He wants a word with me
But I won't get to speak
My father's calling me
To tell me I should change
He says it's best for me
But I don't feel the same
No
My father’s calling me
No
My father's calling me
And I can't turn away
He wants a word with me
But I won't get to speak
My father's calling me
To tell me I should change
He says it's best for me
But I don't feel the same
My father's calling me
And I can't turn away
He wants a word with me
But I won't get to speak
My father's calling me
To tell me I should change
He says it's best for me
But I don't feel the same
