lyrics
So you've been divorced,
for a lifetime I am forced
to stand between two chairs
left behind feeling like no one cares.
You both, father and mother,
blame it on each other.
Those rotten years of youth
I never knew what's the truth.
You're the father I've never had
and that's the truth.
Have I grown up with only lies?
So what's the truth?
Father! Mother!
Can I trust him? Can I trust her?
The first ten years hurt today,
you've only lived a few miles away!
Can't realize, thought I tried,
I can't disguise that I still pay the price.
Come on! Brainwash me! Lie to me!
Institutionalize me!
Don't they see their failure?
Took the name of a stranger.
Still don't know what's right,
but I am still torn inside.
The truth I still don't know.
Tell me more! On with the show!
I'll find out for myself
and go get mental help.
You're the father I've never had
and that's the truth.
Did I grow up with all those lies?
No one told me the fucking truth!
And sometimes I dream back I was staring at the walls
thinking about anything and then again I think about nothing.
You both would come in.
I'd pulled you some chairs and you'd sat down.
And we could talk face to face to fucking face, Father and Mother,
to solve out the fucking truth!
FUCK!
