Sins Of The Father (feat. Bon Iver)

Oh Lord, I bear this weight

My mom and my daddy, upon me they've placed

I have no words to say

It's written there all over my face

Oh Lord, perpetual pain

I can't be at home where my father lays

In time, we'll fade away

Hopefully it's to the same place

Father, You said You'd love me

Like my own never could

How could I ever thank Thee?

You are good

There is no one like You

You gave Your life so I wouldn't have to

Where there is one, there's two

It's me and You

I've got all this hate in my heart

But I got no place to put it

Tried to leave it behind, but I couldn't

I need alchemical transmutation

I need alchemical transmutation

I've got all this pain in my heart

But I got no place to put it

Tried to leave it behind, but I couldn't

I need alchemical transmutation

I need alchemical transmutation, oh

Dad was forgetful, he promised a lot

Thankfully, he never got caught

Passed it to me now, I finally can see

Forgetting's a gift, thank you, God

Forgot your birthday, I'm sorry, my dear

At least my stance remains clear

I'll forget your birthday, like every year

Who gives a fuck anyways?

Those are the sins of the father

Those are the sins

Sins, sins, sins (sins of the father)

Turn around -, turn around
