paroles de chanson Last Surviving Son - Alicia Witt

You′re a drinker a smoker
Hoisting lies upon your shoulder
And every notch carved in your bedpost
Was like revenge upon that man

So you fake it you just take it
It's etched into your crooked chin
You say you′ve learned but you never change
You've given up so much for him

The guilt wells up in your baby blues
Well someone's got to fill them boots

You′re daddy′s last surviving son
And he'll never let you love someone
Like me, someone like me
Long as he lives you′ll be alone
You signed the rules he wrote in stone
Til he's 6 below you won′t be free
To love someone like me

I know you felt it i'm not crazy
I saw every sign you gave me
You coulda made the choice but he stole your voice
Instead you ran for safety

You don′t need fixing you ain't broken
Can't you see the door is open
The only thing standing in your way
Is the key you think he′s holding

I keep praying like a fool
But this ain′t up to god it's up to you

You′re daddy's last surviving son
And he′ll never let you love someone
Like me someone like me
Oh he says jump you say how high
His twisted ancient lullaby
Til he's 6 below you won′t be free
To love someone...

Tell me can you sleep at night
Do the possibilities of what might have been
Keep swimming round your head
Or do all the stakes you think you've claimed
In the shadow of his name keep him alive
While you're dyin slow instead

The guilt wells up in your baby blues
Well someone′s got to fill them boots

You′re daddy's last surviving son
And he′ll never let you love someone
Like me, someone like me
Long as he lives you'll be alone
You signed the rules he wrote in stone
Til he′s 6 below you won't be free
To love someone
To love someone
Like me
