The Fight

from Family Portrait by This Noise

/

lyrics

Father

I was searching for my son

I found him that boy was drinking up rum

I said he was foolish do as I say and not as I do

Because I, I’m living to die

And he said

Don’t lecture me because I already know

If you’re gonna die

Well that’s what I hope

I’ve failed him he’s falling he’s crying

I’m trying to stop but my mind works too slow

I wasn’t thinking I threw a punch he fell to the ground

And I, on this path I am bound

Intoxicating this feeling I found

And I can’t stop till he don’t make a sound

He says I’m a monster and I think he’s right

But what does it matter if I win the fight

I’ve failed him he’s falling he’s dying

Oh how it felt when my fist hit his face

Not to sound resolute but God it felt great
