about
A song about Fathers.
lyrics
Father the man within, a hand who raised us
Set the bar to be
How much is determined by the lines in our face
It’s the ones that cross over
Are intriguing to me
The young man in him is the old man in me
A blueprint you left me
With shoes to grow in
Just like my mother, I am a twin
Sharing the same mould built by your hand
Well your old man, taken by the drink
The thought it scares you with in
But you are a father, much different to him
You draw the same blood
A cut to the skin
It’s the old man in me
The young man in him is the old man in me
When your body, oh it aches for rest
When the pillars to your mind have collapsed
You can close your eyes
Just dream and listen
Set the bar to be
How much is determined by the lines in our face
It’s the ones that cross over
Are intriguing to me
The young man in him is the old man in me
A blueprint you left me
With shoes to grow in
Just like my mother, I am a twin
Sharing the same mould built by your hand
Well your old man, taken by the drink
The thought it scares you with in
But you are a father, much different to him
You draw the same blood
A cut to the skin
It’s the old man in me
The young man in him is the old man in me
When your body, oh it aches for rest
When the pillars to your mind have collapsed
You can close your eyes
Just dream and listen
