Lyrics
0:00Honor Thy Father (Album Version) - Dream Theater (夢劇院樂隊)
1:28We're taught unconditional love
1:30That blood is thicker than water
1:32That a parent's world would revolve
1:34Always around their son or their daughter
1:37You pretend I was your own
1:40And even believed that you loved me
1:42But were always threatened by some
1:44Invisible blood line that only you could see
1:58You took advantage of an outreached hand
2:00And twisted it to meet your every need
2:03Gimme time to re-charge my batteries
2:05I'll see her when she's older and I'll bounce her on my knee
2:08Well listen to me you ungrateful fool
2:10Here comes a dose of reality
2:13You'll go to your grave a sad and lonely man
2:15The door is now closed on your pathetic little plan
2:18On and on and on and on it goes
2:28It's so easy to run away with nothing in tow
2:36How can you ever sleep a wink at night
2:38Pretending that everything is alright
2:41And have the nerve to blame this mess on me
2:46Never in my life have I seen someone
2:48So Ignorant to the damage he has done
2:51You're the rotted root in the family tree
3:19I tried your 4 bill therapy
3:23I tried to make amends
3:29But nothing could lure you out of your selfish shell again
3:51Expecting everyone to bow and kiss your feet
3:56Don't you see respect is not a one way street
4:01Blaming everyone for all that you've done wrong
4:06I'll get my peace of mind when you hear this song
4:10On and on and on and on it goes
4:20And with every passing day true colors show
4:28How can you ever sleep a wink at night
4:30Pretending that everything is alright
4:33And have the balls to blame this mess on me
4:38Never in my life have I seen someone
4:40Oblivious to the damage he has done
4:43You're the rotted root in the family tree
4:48Watch where you walk
4:50Don't you dare cross the crooked step
4:53Watch the way you talk
5:00Don't cross the crooked step
8:45On and on and on and on it goes
8:55Chauvinistic heartless selfish cold
9:04How can you ever sleep a wink at night
9:06Pretending that everything is alright
9:09And have the balls to blame this sh*t on me
9:14Never in my life have I seen someone
9:17So f**king blind to the damage he has done
9:19You're the rotted root in the family tree
