Hey mother, who are you?
Your eyes see in me
Everything that’s wrong
Hey father, where are you?
Never cared to see me smile
I was not enough
In my soul, I feel I failed you
Now it’s as cold as a stone!
If I could erase the pain
Could I hide the shame?
You’re the reason
I’m restrained!
If I could make all the sense
I’d climb that barbed wire fence
You’re the reason
I’m Restrained!
Hey brother,
You don’t know me
Wish we could have grown up
By each other’s side
Hey sister,
You won’t know me
Chances are you never knew me to exist
Blind
From a child
And now I’m grown
I have grown as cold as stone!
If I could erase the pain
Could I hide the shame?
I’m restrained!
So Damn Strange!
