My Father's Son

I am my father's son, I am my father's mistakes

I'm easily undone and I'm no stranger to rage

I am no stranger to rage

I am no stranger to rage

I built the bars out of bottles

Drowned myself just to escape

I am my father's son, I am my father's mistakes

And I'm ashamed of myself

I just want out of this place

This fucking hell I've created

I can't seem to escape

I had to learn for myself

The fastest way to my death

So I could follow his footsteps

To my hospital bed

All my life I have been trying to understand myself

It seems like my own reflection is just somebody else

It's taken years to know my father courses through my veins

And though I never knew him, it turns out we're the same

I am no stranger to rage

I am my father's son

Won't be my father's mistakes

I've crept through shadows and alleys

Found my home on the streets

I've felt the cold glare of strangers

As they passed over me

I never figured I'd turn out to be such a disgrace

But I'm my father's son

The sum of all his mistakes

I have to learn from myself

The fastest way to my death

So I could follow his footsteps

To my hospital bed

All my life I have been trying to understand myself

It seems like my own reflection is just somebody else

It's taken years to know my father courses through my veins

And though I never knew him, it turns out we're the same

I am no stranger to rage

(And though I never knew him

Though I never knew him

It turns out we're the same)

I am my father's son

I am my father's son

I am my father's son

Won't be my father's mistakes

I am my father's son

I am my father's son

I am my father's son

I am my father's son
