[00:12.32]Though they may want you to tread in their trail
[00:19.80]Only to see if the path they set fails
[00:27.26]Though they may want you to take off your clothes
[00:34.79]Whatever they think that the action exposed
[00:42.19]With your clothes on the floor
[00:47.76]Taking advice from some old balding bore
[00:53.52]You'll ask yourself did I want this at all
[01:01.66]Do you remember what I said
[01:08.08]The book I left by your bed
[01:14.04]The words that some survivor read
[01:22.26]Lately I've been thinking about our daughter growing old
[01:29.90]All of the bulls**t that she might be told
[01:37.80]There's blood on the floor
[01:45.13]Maybe now you'll believe her for sure
[01:52.67]She remembers what I said
[01:59.28]The book I left by her bed
[02:05.32]The words that some survivor read
[02:28.95]Though they may take you for all you had left
[02:36.00]You won't be forgotten for what you had not done yet
[02:43.75]So you wished for a kiss from god
[02:49.52]And you mourned in your childish loss
[02:55.66]Innocence gone but it's not forgot
[03:00.81]You'll get your way through it somehow
[03:08.08]You remember what I said
[03:14.37]The book you left by your bed
[03:20.23]The words that will outlive the dead
