The Best You Can't Be - SECRETS

Father my father, why’d you run away from your boy?

It’s a shame you’d rather play

When you had the perfect chance to stay

It’s safe to say, you never cared anyway

But one day, you’ll come running back (to me)

I’m not the same, that’s all I can say

So don’t expect me to take you back

So if you don’t want me

Then why’d you plant your seed?

You could have raised an intelligent boy

One day you’ll see

Now look at me, your abandoned seed

I’ve become an intelligent man, you’re the enemy

So, are you happy with yourself?

You’re just a cowardice fiend

Addicted to things irrelevant

When I was the one you should have supplied your love into

I guess that’s something you can’t do

I guess it’s easy to leave and harder to be a man

Of all of these things, I need you to know I hate you, dad

So if you don’t want me

Then why’d you plant your seed?

You could have raised an intelligent boy

One day you’ll see

Now look at me, your abandoned seed

I’ve become an intelligent man, you’re the enemy

I’ve waited so many years

But you always disappear

I’m sick of your lies

God damn, I hope they eat you alive!

You won’t have much to love

And it’s all because you were my father

Now you’re the one that I don’t trust

Father oh father, how could you leave me alone?

Father oh father, how could you leave me alone?

So if you don’t want me

Then why’d you plant your seed?

You could have raised an intelligent boy

One day you’ll see

Now look at me, your abandoned seed

I’ve become an intelligent man, you’re the enemy

Father oh father, how could you leave me alone?

Father oh father, how could you leave me alone?
