Family is a sick metaphor wherever I go they are inside of my lungs and more still alone I'll wander poor When with the mother her rage eyes were upon me watching the sickness of a father the frustrated artist or the silence When with the father his rage screams upon me calling the nickname of a mother like I was the end of a love in defiance Memories of violence swallows me The anguish of escaping this solace Watching the cracks of being thrown in around it Memories of violence swallows me and whenever I look I can't hide it from this anguish puzzles inside of it this endless wicked metaphor of family

Family
Family is a sick metaphor wherever I go they are inside of my lungs and more still alone I'll wander poor When with the mother her rage eyes were upon me watching the sickness of a father the frustrated artist or the silence When with the father his rage screams upon me calling the nickname of a mother like I was the end of a love in defiance Memories of violence swallows me The anguish of escaping this solace Watching the cracks of being thrown in around it Memories of violence swallows me and whenever I look I can't hide it from this anguish puzzles inside of it this endless wicked metaphor of family
