Torches and Tragedies - Good Riddance[00:00:00]

Children who watch their[00:00:17]

Fathers rise to work each day[00:00:17]

Becoming bitter as[00:00:19]

They piss their lives away[00:00:20]

Out of balance as[00:00:21]

He stumbles to the porch[00:00:22]

Too young to recognize[00:00:24]

The passing of the torch[00:00:25]

And so they cry in fear[00:00:26]

They wonder why not here[00:00:28]

The cycle punctuates an[00:00:29]

Atmosphere of pain and lies[00:00:30]

It gets to where one never[00:00:32]

Knows what to expect[00:00:33]

A bedtime story or a broken nose or neck[00:00:34]

They take it in and take it on[00:00:38]

Like they've been shown[00:00:40]

It goes on and on and[00:00:41]

Too many sterile homes[00:00:43]

Without a thing to say[00:00:44]

A generation losing[00:00:46]

Innocence this way and[00:00:47]

No recognition of[00:00:48]

The bridges as they burn[00:00:49]

Just repetition of behaviors[00:00:51]

They have learned[00:00:52]

And so they cry in fear[00:00:53]

They wonder why not here[00:00:54]

We tip the fragile scales of[00:00:56]

Temperament and guilt[00:00:57]

Too soon mistaken for[00:00:58]

The will that makes us strong[00:00:59]

But looking back it's just[00:01:01]

The shame we pass along[00:01:02]

They take it in and take it on[00:01:04]

Like they've been shown[00:01:07]

It goes on and on and[00:01:08]

My dreams too often true[00:01:10]

I will never be the same as you[00:01:13]

Born dead to live a lie[00:01:15]

Shut down when I see you cry[00:01:18]
