We’re losing all respect for you
because you never could respect us too
Trapped
Under your shadow

Spent most my life trying to please your stubborn mind
I don’t wanna
Still chew the fat that clogs up my every movement
I don’t wanna
Be locked away, the jailor’s pride, a broken spirit
I just want to
Be free to make mistakes that I regret.
Tracing this leash
Tracing this leash back to you

Look what you did, look what you did
I was gone in a blink of an eye
Tossed out, thrown to the curb
A family’s really hard to come by
These days
Look what you did, look what you did
I was gone in a blink of an eye
Tossed out, thrown to the curb
A family’s really hard to come by
These days
These days
On my own

Lost cause

Trying to rise up in this world that hates me
I don’t wanna
Be tied down by a lack of confidence
I don’t wanna
Turn my head, and see your hands my shoulders
I just want to
Crash my life, like a party

Look what you did, look what you did
I was gone in a blink of an eye
Tossed out, thrown to the curb
A family’s really hard to come by
These days
Look what you did, look what you did
I was gone in a blink of an eye
Tossed out, thrown to the curb
A family’s really hard to come by
These days
These days
On my own

You named me but you don’t know my name
You still try to
Keep me in line, with the others, like we’re all the same,
Faceless

Wayward sons
Prodigal daughters
Hammer down the screw
Shift shape under the knife

Been given a life, a chance to impact the people around me
I owe you my life, but you never gave me the chance to take it
Or give it away

No respect, lack of faith
To many walls to break through
Seal my lips, work through the day
I don’t live to impress you
