Honor Thy Father and Mother

from Lo, and I Am Burning by Úzkost

/

lyrics

There are so many things
I wished the courage to say.
29 years, I have been silent.
29 years, I’ve tried to forgive.
Much of what was done
My mind won’t let me remember.
Much of what was done
I will never forget.
I’ve struggled to come to terms
With the fact that I was abused.
My mind, my body, my soul:
You violated me in every way.
You passed your curse to me.
I am a failure.
I am not a man.
I will never be loved.
I will never find grace.
I will never be better.
I will always be nothing.
I ruined your life.
I should never have been born.
You were to
Teach me to love.
You showed me how
To grow hate in my heart.
You were to
Inspire hope
within me.
Through you,
I came to know despair.
You were to
help me grow strong.
You exploited my
Every weakness.
You were to
Show me the path
To walk in faith.
Every word and action was hypocrisy.
You never wanted to be my father and mother.
I never wanted to be your son.
I will never tell,
But you should already know.
