2 Years On (Shame Dream) Lyrics
We were on the road.
She heard where my brothers had gone.
She thought she had failed for her life.
And (in that moment) my father he was terrible (truthful)
he said, "god knows how much my love they can find."
Ya, (this was a violent thing to say because) they built a house all of lies.
He knew that they were born to love.
he knew they were men he knew they were no different than
you or me or any other guy
Yet he knew that they were never just alright.
You thought they were imaginary.
No one ever old you life would be this unfair- oh it is!
No one would ask this for themselves.
The windows down, wind on my skin—
my brothers in bed with these women;
This day I learned that for me pride was stuck with shame.
There was silence in the car.
My mother was so angry but she saw
that this was our fate crystalized.
That for them there was so much frustrate desire;
That their pain it would never expire;
That these loving hearts would always just burn on fire;
just no satisfaction, jus these twisted hearts on fire.
There's no [de]sign no god,
just the future and my mothers broken heart.
ohhhhhhhh
