senior project - tears block visibility lyrics

Loading...

verse 1
oh john your dad with his anger slips
who kisses the bottle not your lips
the liquids and the powders
they caused your house to split

you cursed four walls that kept you inside
pillow still soaked from those nights
you we scarred forever
when you heard you mother’s cry

you are looking in the bas#m#nt for a gun:
hurt yourself to hurt someone
praying the bullet does more harm
to the father than the son
chorus a
you’ve had rough encounters
with eyes too wet to see
can you give me a better reason
for you to take you away from me?

verse 2
sarah you’re trying to make amends
to the molestations when you were ten
at a crooked house in arkansas
with your uncle and his friends

like a pair of shoelaces that are latched:
that house that haunts you is still attached
and you keep “tripping” on the night
that your innocence was sn#tched

chorus # a
you’ve had rough encounters
with eyes too wet to see
can you give me a better reason
for you to take you away from me?

verse 3
and i’ve been living behind the scenes:
can’t find myself at seventeen
i wonder if he is “man” or “child”
or something in#between

well he’s never had a reason to shed a tear
but scared to death that pain is near
heart#ache around the corner
brings relation to his peers

chorus # b
i’ll have rough encounters
with eyes too wet to see
god can you guide me
when tears block visibility?

i’ll have rough encounters
with eyes too wet to see
god can you guide me
when tears block visibility?
