Lyrics

Oh, shut your eyes. I can't let it end like this. Five years now underground, covered, buried. Let the sun see what damage I've done. Let him learn what a man is capable of. Let him taste my pride, because I have not forgotten. It was her ghost I feared, what it might do. I buried it months ago; I was alone as I'd ever be. The night crept in; the flames went out. I could have touched your fears. The soil rose up from beneath the grass and spoke, Son, I made you what you are today. Your bones were fashioned from my form, and to me they will return. I gave you that pride. It was my hand guiding your tongue when it formed every word.
