Oh poor boy His mind in a wreck Believes that this life of his Poses as morally correct Oh poor boy As every day he knows That his father will be waiting With the needles and a rose Oh poor boy Who's cuticles shall bleed Clutching his fists so tights Begging on his knees Oh poor boy You were born so pure Tainted by this fool Your father and your fear Oh poor boy So submissive and left empty You follow his every order Unable to think freely Oh poor boy Those needles pierce your skin Where is was so soft and clean Is now scarred on every limb Oh poor boy You watch the trickle of your blood Streaming along beside you Mixing with the earthly mud Oh poor boy... He hands you the rose Imperfect thorns, petals stained red As he says "this is the way life goes"
