Fatalism
from The Flying Machine by Apex of Apathy
lyrics
Father you told me not to tell lies
I remember that day because
I saw that light in your eyes
You looked at me, I looked back at you
You spoke simple words I knew to be true
But something threw me off course
Distracted by change I forgot those words
Now I’m using a lens to look at the world
I know that I’m sick and I can’t find the cure
Father you told me not to tell lies
So why do I act like I’m so fucking normal?
Why do I say what they want me to say?
These temporal fears have eroded my heart
For far too long, for far too long
Now with trembling lips I’ll cast them away
I’d rather die on my feet than live on my knees
I remember that day because
I saw that light in your eyes
You looked at me, I looked back at you
You spoke simple words I knew to be true
But something threw me off course
Distracted by change I forgot those words
Now I’m using a lens to look at the world
I know that I’m sick and I can’t find the cure
Father you told me not to tell lies
So why do I act like I’m so fucking normal?
Why do I say what they want me to say?
These temporal fears have eroded my heart
For far too long, for far too long
Now with trembling lips I’ll cast them away
I’d rather die on my feet than live on my knees
