The House of My Father Lyrics by Bad Romance (Band)

Code of Honor

0

In the house of my father
I learned how to pray
Inherited keys to
Lock my tears away
Plan for the future
And always be strong
Put in overtime
And wake up all alone
Like my father
In my mother's chambers
I painted my face
Lost in emotion, I keep up the pace
I learned to keep secrets
And learned to keep score
With valium and vodka
In her bedside drawer
In the house of my father
In the house of my father
In the house of my father
The children don't play
Too busy worryin' their young lives away
Silence can be an impossible weight
And suicide prevention
Comes a day too late
In the house of my father
In the house of my father
History has a strange way of repeating
In the house of my father
In the house of my father
I dream
I grow
I leave
But I know
In the house of my father, it's time to retire
Pick up the Good Book and put out the fires
Wonderin' if your life ever did any good
And wonder if the children ever understood
In the house of my father
In the house of my father
History has a strange way of repeating
Through the good and the bad
The deeper meanings lay
In the house of my father
In the house of my father
