Of all the places
And all the sons
We are the wisest
The wisest ones
Look at our father
He's lying in the corner
At home
Please give him water
And watch him as he drowns
Alone
I've picked up the pieces
And waited for the time
To be my own
Now I'm a father
Watching over all
The little ones
I am the one
That showed you how to grow
I am the one
That showed you what I know
(But why don't you show me your love?)
Look at our mother
She's fighting for the strength
To live alone
Please give her laughter
It's the only thing I know
To numb the pain
I've become so bitter
Pretended like there was
No one gone
But we need a father
Tell me where the hell
Did it go wrong?
I am the one
That showed you how to grow
I am the one
That showed you what I know
(But why don't you show me your love?)
Sons
