Pater Familias Lyrics - Dreadlock Pussy

It's time to leave this burning ship behind 

It's time to come to terms and realise 

There's nothing to be found in that left behind 

But reddish traces of forgotten crimes 

And I fear the rage will grow above my head 

When oil gets spilled, the fire fed 

The precious bounds of forgiveness almost met 

Indeed I'm better off remembering instead 

Every day I diagnose myself and I see more of what I hate 

This can't be happening 

Oh, cruel twist of fate 

YOUR EQUAL, YOUR SEQUEL 

(a copy of a copy) 

PLEASE TELL ME I'M NOT [4x] 

[chorus] 

I'm looking at a face I don't believe this can't be my legacy 

SAY I'M NOT LIKE YOU, SWEAR I WON'T END UP LIKE THIS 

What remains is courteousy and all the rest is history 

SAY I'M NOT LIKE YOU, SWEAR I WON'T END UP LIKE THIS 

What's mine remains the bond between our lives 

I see you in the mirror with my eyes 

The spitting image of that worthless life 

The shiny happy family a mere disguise 

And yet I vow to myself I'll change 

The detriment done I'll re-erase 

No more will I be marked as what you made 

Now all that's left is to face that I'm afraid 

Every day I diagnose myself and I see more of what I hate 

This can't be happening 

Oh, cruel twist of fate 

Slip into your skin 

Weed out the rot 

And reap the right that lies within 

Not repeat the mistake 

And hate myself 

But learn to accept my fate instead 

[chorus] 

YOUR EQUAL, YOUR SEQUEL 

(a copy of a copy) 

PLEASE TELL ME I'M NOT [4x]
