Lost Forever

learn your son and adopt his love
 you never loved me, you never knew me
 you waged your war with him on us
 you made yourself neglect me
 he always found a way to forgive and forget
 i've just learned to live without you
 i've learned how to not love you
 i don't need your lesson of hate
 i don't need your legacy of pain
 i don't want your overwhelming pride
 without you in my life, i'm fine
 without you in my life, i'm fine
 you're lost forever
 passed down from stranger to father
 and then from father to me
 your lesson of hate
 beaten nightly into me
 your shadow still hangs over him
 your eyes still look through him
 your words still cut into him
 as he now tries to understand me
 you never tried to understand him
 you never tried to know me
 you'll never love me
 you're lost forever
 you're lost forever
 you're lost forever
 you're lost forever
 you couldn't respect his mind
 you couldn't fathom his drive
 too bad, and now you never will
 and you'll never understand him
 you never tried to know me
 you'll never understand me
 you'll never love me
 you're lost forever
 you'll never have respect from me
 you took your war out on me
 you'll never love me
 i will never love you
 you're lost forever
 you're gone as quickly as you came
 a mere passing thought in a blanket day
 a vengeful hate-filled sick old man
 i will never love
 you're lost forever
