Sins of the Father

[Verse 1]
I am the crazy man who lives inside your head
But I think I'm breaking through the wall
You are the innocent convicted of the crime
No-one was ever there to catch you when you fall
I see the diamonds but you only see the rock
I need to run and you only crawl
It's time to open up all the doors that you keep locked
Nobody gives without a take, let's take it all

[Chorus]
Oh, you've been twisted into pieces by the hands of your emotions
How much longer are you gonna pay for yesterday?
Sins of the father

[Verse 2]
One more crucifixion, one more cross to bear
You're a hole in a photograph
Go on, lose it in the city
The city can feel no shame
See the world with electric eye

[Instrumental Break]

[Verse 3]
They call it mystery but any fool could see
You thought he walked on the water
And if the pain was gone and you were free to run away
And get out
Would you get out of there?
Or do you really care, it's not safe or easy
And maybe when you're gone, you just won't belong at all

[Chorus]
Oh, you're the only witness to the murder of an angel
How much longer are you gonna pay for yesterday?
Sins of the father

[Guitar Solo]

[Outro]
Now it's just another crucifixion
One more cross to bear
Go on, lose it in the city
Take a look at the world
You've got electric eyes
