Pride & The Pallor
Lyricist:Greg Graffin, Brett Gurewitz
Papa had a wife and kids, he kept them on a leash And he bid them all to do his every deed When he was a kid, he was treated just the same So he hid his feelings from his family
Lost as an island out at sea Resistant to the gentle waves of empathy
Yeah, papa and his family always on parade Tearing through the turnstiles, weekender's charade But time will tell as their world crumbles to hell
What they created was a family story no one will tell It's a photo album, too terrible But the pride and the pallor continue to swell As the matron silently prays
Junior resented the tradition they upheld And it ate him up inside most every day Silence was golden and they kept him to his word So bewildered when he finally ran away
Oh, obligations never cease Oblivious of the ways to give his soul some peace
Yeah, Papa and his family always on parade Find more lyrics at ※ Mojim.com Passing through the turnstiles, weekender's charade But time will tell as their world crumbles to hell
What they created was a family story no one will tell It's a photo album, too terrible But the pride and the pallor continue to swell As the matron silently prays
Get me out of here, someone's got to save the day The children are reminded to do it for their daddy's sake And happiness is ever so far, far away
Yeah, lost as an island out at sea Oblivious of the gentle waves of empathy
Yeah, papa and his family always on parade Tearing through the turnstiles, weekender's charade It's just a sick calamity that fatherhood made But time will tell as their world crumbles to hell
What they created was a family story no one will tell It's a photo album, too terrible But the pride and the pallor continue to swell As the matron silently prays
You know the rest
