It's Been So Long

I dunno what I was thinking
Leaving my child behind
Now I suffer the curse and now I am blind

With all this anger, guilt and sadness
Coming to haunt me forever
I can't wait for the cliff at the end of the river

Is this revenge I am seeking
Or seeking someone to avenge me?
Stuck in my own paradox, I wanna set myself free
Maybe I should chase and find

Before they try to stop it
It won't be long before I become a puppet
It's been so long
Since I last have seen my son, lost to this monster

To the man behind the slaughter
Since you've been gone
I've been singing this stupid song so I could ponder
The sanity of your mother

I wish I lived in the present
With the gift of my past mistakes
But the future keeps lurking in like a pack of snakes
Your sweet little eyes, your little smile's all I remember
Those fuzzy memories mess with my temper

Justification is killing me
But killing isn't justified
What happened to my son? I'm terrified
It lingers in my mind

And the thought keeps on getting bigger
I'm sorry, my sweet baby, I wish I've been there
It's been so long
Since I last have seen my son, lost to this monster

To the man behind the slaughter
Since you've been gone
I've been singing this stupid song so I could ponder
The sanity of your mother
