I dunno what I was thinking,
Leaving my child behind,
Now I suffer the curse and now I am blind.
With all this anger, guilt and sadness,
Coming to haunt me forever,
I can't wait for the cliff at the end of the river.
Is this revenge I am seeking,
Or seeking someone to avenge me,
Stuck in my own paradox I wanna set myself free.
Maybe I should chase and find,
Before they'll try to stop it,
It won't be long before I'll become a puppet.
It's been so long,
Since I last have seen my son
Lost to this monster
To the man behind the slaughter.
Since you've been gone
I've been singing this stupid song
So I could ponder
The sanity of your mother
I wish I lived in the present,
With the gift of my past mistakes,
But the future keeps luring in like a pack of snakes.
Your sweet little eyes, your little smile,
Is all I remember.
Those fuzzy memories mess with my temper.
Justification is killing me,
But killing isn't justified,
What happened to my son, I'm terrified.
It lingers in my mind and the thought keeps on getting bigger,
I'm sorry my sweet baby, I wish I've been there.
It's been so long,
Since I last have seen my son
Lost to this monster
To the man behind the slaughter
Since you've been gone,
I've been singing this stupid song
So I could ponder
The sanity of your mother.
