lyrics

In these towns,
What we hold dear
is family, don't you agree?
I would rather drown
Than live in fear
This is my decree

How would you like it the other way?
Absent parent, day to day
Alcoholic mother, what's left to hide?
A failed attempt but at least they tried.

You are my skin and bone
Does it hurt to say,
You'll never find home
Will these feelings stay?

In these times
What means most
Is family, don't you agree?
When the bell chimes I'll turn ghost
Give me a bigger dose

How would you like it the other way?
Absent parent, day to day
Abusive farther, what's left to hide?
A failed attempt but at least they tried.

You are my skin and bone
Does it hurt to say,
You'll never find hope
Will these feelings stay?

Can't you see it?
Nothing but the dust of dismay,
You be rid of it, or look the other way
There's no place to hide,
Your hands are fucking tied
It's either go or fucking stay

Dust of Dismay

Stronger than your own sin
Stronger than God's mercy

I'd rather drown
Than live in fear

What you seek, you'll never find
You'll try your whole life, but never mind
Unless you change the way you think,
Your whole life, blood in the sink.
