The Boy In The Attic Lyrics - Green Carnation

[music: Tchort, lyrics: Tchort] 

A blessing from below, born a sweet child like foretold 

Could it the boy that I used to be 

Oh, father please forgive me if I`ve done you wrong 

For how long will you let me suffer all alone 

Father! Please! 

A father`s touch, a beating one too much 

Hiding in the closet waiting for him to sleep 

What others saw of me, was what dad wanted them to see 

Father! Please! 

I want to taste the free, like nothing ever used to be 

I want to taste what is mine 

Am I evil, could it be, that I am the one they fear 

Look at me, I am the sweetest one you`ll ever see 

I made it through the old into a brand new life 

No more hiding in the closet, waiting for him to sleep 

Into the shadows of old 

Strange memories of time gone 

I was never rightfully yours 

Storys like mine, that were never told 

Out of the window feeling free 

That is how I killed me...
