Letra de Certain Father
I could see it in her face
A hit and run
Under an ocean sun
A hit and run
Under an ocean sun
She thought I knew he was not the only one
A purist's mind in judgement's a funny thing
Don't need to try when the ice gets thin
I just sigh and hold it in
Said she wanted all of something (you can)
Overlooked, he feels forgotten (hear it)
Up the river, screaming profane, he says
Closer certain father
Feel the stillness dying
River current lying
Screaming coward
It was a hit and run
Can't take his place, he's a setting sun
Under the gun he'll try to prove he's not the lonely one
Father shows his teeth when he's on the run
Don't need to lie when you just pretend it was never your intent
Sinking deeper, manic creature
A hollow trope, an empty preacher
Squirming falling you can hear it whisper
Closer certain father
Feel the stillness dying
River current lying
Screaming coward
It was a hit and run
As I try
It was a hit and run
As I try to compromise
You can hear it
(Closer certain father)
Crying naked (Closer certain father)
I begin to (Closer certain father)
Let the water win (Closer certain father)
'Cause I can't hold you in
He's a setting sun
And you're not the only one
A purist's mind in judgement's a funny thing
Don't need to try when the ice gets thin
I just sigh and hold it in
Said she wanted all of something (you can)
Overlooked, he feels forgotten (hear it)
Up the river, screaming profane, he says
Closer certain father
Feel the stillness dying
River current lying
Screaming coward
It was a hit and run
Can't take his place, he's a setting sun
Under the gun he'll try to prove he's not the lonely one
Father shows his teeth when he's on the run
Don't need to lie when you just pretend it was never your intent
Sinking deeper, manic creature
A hollow trope, an empty preacher
Squirming falling you can hear it whisper
Closer certain father
Feel the stillness dying
River current lying
Screaming coward
It was a hit and run
As I try
It was a hit and run
As I try to compromise
You can hear it
(Closer certain father)
Crying naked (Closer certain father)
I begin to (Closer certain father)
Let the water win (Closer certain father)
'Cause I can't hold you in
He's a setting sun
And you're not the only one
