lyrics

They sit safe,
Sheltered underground.
But not before the damage was done.
Removed from the setting.
Unsettled, to say the least.
Preserving traditions worth forgetting.

They sit safe.
Sheltered underground.
But, not before the damage was done.
Removed from the setting.
Unsettled, to say the least.
Preserving traditions worth forgetting.

It seeps from your skin,
It falls from your lips:
The hateful words of this recitation that you’ve inherited.

It’s the particularly nasty stain you can’t washout.
The lingering scent of a tired age you can’t live without.

They pray to god everyday
For a child to carry the family name of the father.
To live through them,
Speak through them,
As will be done to their children.

It seeps from your skin,
It falls from your lips:
The hateful words of this recitation that you’ve been living in.

You are the stagnant.
You don’t evolve.
A stubborn ghost stuck in its haunt.

It’s the particularly nasty stain you can’t washout.
The lingering scent of a tired age you can’t live without.

It’s the belief you never asked for, but passed down the family tree
And where the noose has been tied to the highest branch,
You’ll hang as the oddity.

(And don’t you worry your head if you disagree,
‘Cause in the next thirty years the same will be said about me.)
