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 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
You tried to take what's mine
You 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 (you 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, oh-oh (no, oh-oh)
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
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 behind)
Your disguise (your disguise)
In my mind
The voices won't end
They repeat in my head
In my mind

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

Lost in a world of illusions

To tell me I should change
He says it's best for me
But I don't feel the same
