It doesn't take too much effort to spot all the fakers.
Social norms and expectations.
Everyone says we're the strange ones.
At least we're ourselves.
At least you know who we are.

Will it ever end?
Will I ever be free?
Chasing goal after goal,
Just to be dissatisfied.
Get Jesus,
Got Jesus.
Get the girl.
Got the girl.
Get out of Jersey.
Got out.
Lost Jesus.
Now I want stability,
What will I want next?
When will I be content?
When will desire
Cease to ensnare me?
Will my vanity go away?
I'm inclined to think not,
And it scares me.

We were just kids,
We thought we knew all the answers
But we couldn't agree on anything, and I
Tried to show you right from wrong you
Never knew what I meant by that and I
could've said more, but you know me and
You could've said less, but you know you

And you can't possibly know
Just how it feels to,
To know that I failed you,
To know that I could've done more.
Like I can't ever know
What it feels like,
To pump lead through my skull,
To leave my friends alone.

You always thought you knew best and you
Weren't afraid to let us all know it but
I'd let you be right if it'd mean you'd still be breathing.
You were brave and you were selfish but at least you were real
And I know I'm two years late but don't go.

That night
When you stole from your son,
When you
Broke up our family,
When Mom
Figured out she'd finally had enough.
I want you to
Know that night's the reason for all her flaws.
Institutionalized.
It's all because of how that night went down.
She said
"You took it for drugs didn't you?"
My stomach sank.
We ran from you because of what you did.
Selfish
Greedy and Stupid, I took Mike's money.

We ran from you.
I hope you know mom asked us first.
I was relieved, happy even, when I heard the news. You weren't a
Father to me. I doubt I was the son you wanted. We feared you. You broke us. I can count the good memories with you on one hand.
Hell, I wouldn't even be able to fill it.
I remember you took us to six flags. I remember getting sick as soon as we got to the hotel, and I remember you yelling at me on the car ride up for something I didn't do. I don't remember the rides. I don't remember anything else about our only family vacation.
I remember you telling me I couldn't be friends with the neighbor, and I remember your drinking.
One night you thought I was sleeping, and I learned why you wouldn't let me be friends with him. That night I learned what racism was.
I wouldn't leave my room on your days off, and I tried so hard to be good
When you were around. Tried to avoid conflict with you. Tried to avoid you, actually.
But even after living in hell for the first 12 years of my life, I'm not afraid of you anymore, dad. I'm afraid of myself.
