lyrics

I am the father of failures
I am the father of pain
I am the father of too many problems
I am my father in name

Reaching peaks improperly
Hands of red and crooked feet
Numb and too afraid to speak
Have you finally beaten me down?
Poison thoughts are running me
Thoughts like knives that cut through me
Fear of what I'll never see
Little moth with burning wings
(Little moth, don't ever cause hurt like this)

I am the father of virtues
I am the father of flame
I am the father of two different voices
I am my father in name

Leave these dreams beneath your feet
Get back in the driver's seat
Plastic wheels on shifting streets
There's your shadow haunting me now
Faintest notion of relief
Distance from a distant scream
Cruelty don't look good on me
Little moth can take the heat
(Little moth, don't ever cause hurt like this)

Are you hurting now like I do?

Now this heart is harder
You will go much farther

You are not your father
You are not your father
You are not your father
