Only Son
|
|
All these babies are born
|
To the wrong kind of people
|
And I wish I had known
|
I was not good enough
|
I'm the worst kind of son
|
Bringing shame to my family
|
And I know I have worn
|
My mother's heart out, believe me
|
I saw it
|
I saw it coming
|
|
All these things I have done
|
To my little little sister
|
When I try to support her
|
She don't believe
|
Why should she?
|
I mean, I hurt her
|
|
So goodbye, so long, I'm gone already
|
I'm running out of time
|
I'm losing my mind
|
Won't you come take me home?
|
Won't somebody hold me?
|
|
All these babies are born
|
Like a field full of poppies
|
Who's gonna know which are torn?
|
I believe I'll soon leave the meadow
|
I see my shadow
|
|
I think I'm losing my soul...
