Father's Son

In the glare of a neon sign She laid her body down The damned walked in beside her And laid his money down He said don't try to scream now But I want this one to hurt And tonight my pretty one I'm gonna get my money's worth He said they never listened She said they'd never understand That I don't this for pleasure I just do it cause I can I swear I didn't want to And I swear I didn't know That things like this could happen To a 17-year old And I've bundled up all of these fears inside And I've bottled up all of this pain And no one or nothing can take this away But I won't let it happen again Never again In the haze of a smoky room He chokes that bottle down It's been a month since her saw her face Underneath the blood stained gown He thinks about that little girl And the one he has at home And wonders what if that was my little girl Walkin down that road alone And I've bundled up all of these fears inside And I've bottled up all of this pain And no one or nothing can take this away But I won't let it happen again Never again Never again No Maybe I'm just crazy or the devil got inside But either way my soul is gone, And I'll end this all night The one hand throws the whiskey, and the other throws the gun As he cries out to the heavens I am not my father's son
