Pater Familias Lyrics & Chords By The Science Of Sleep

Is this all I have left
Is every memory just a construct of a picture
I can't recall

Cause it's all lost on me
It seems these memories
Are all just hand-me-downs
If I could find a trace of hope that these thoughts

Are my own

I would come to terms
Leave it be
Bring all of my bitterness back to me
Instead it seeps from every crack
I'll drown in these waves They won't hold back

Into each life
Some rain must fall
We were already lost at sea
(With no chance)
Against the squall

I'll keep my eyes
From staring down
Cause I've realized
I'm fighting for

For more than myself

It's every person
That lost themselves
The day you took him away

It's for my mother
Who bears the grief
Of being left here alone

If from these scars we learn to grow
You'll reap the seeds you've sown

I was once a coward of a man
A fool that let a life pass right over him
And in that moment I lost my picture's frame
So to the memories that never came
And If these pictures are really all that's left
Then I refuse to let it go
I refuse to let him leave

If these pictures are all that's left
If these pictures are all that's left
