《The Dive(2) (Explicit)》歌词

[00:00:00] 作曲: Abilities, Eyedea

[00:00:11] I never knew my mom, once I was born she was dead

[00:00:24] She never wanted me. At least that's what my dad said

[00:00:28] He said she was polluted, ignorant, uncivilized

[00:00:31] And that was roughly the outline of what he beat into my head

[00:00:35] I grew up in a house with more rooms than I could count

[00:00:40] No siblings, just strangers always moving in and out

[00:00:43] My dad hated all our neighbors

[00:00:49] Had they stepped on his prophets they'd be finished

[00:00:51] 'Cause getting his is what he was about

[00:00:58] Ever since his birth, he was a nuisance to humanity

[00:01:02] I wish he died instead of mom. Maybe then I'd love family

[00:01:05] But I'd smile at pops, concealing that feeling of, "I hate you."

[00:01:09] Each day he'd wear the same three colors, with the same suit

[00:01:14] And mother would come to me when I would close my eyes and sink

[00:01:18] To the thought of her beautiful voice, and the lullabies she'd sing

[00:01:20] 'Til I was sound asleep. Then I'd awake and she'd be gone

[00:01:23] My whole life, my soul echoed her songs

[00:01:27] I guess the grass is always greener on the other side

[00:01:30] And intangible experience structures one leviathan

[00:01:33] From the Koran to leprechauns

[00:01:35] Since when did America fall in between Lebanon and Ireland?

[00:01:41] [chorus x2

[00:01:45] Mamma was a lullaby, Daddy was a melting pot

[00:01:48] Angel in my father's eyes, only 'cause it helps him rot

[00:01:52] Freedom screams through a sky, wounded by a culture shock

[00:01:58] Mamma was a lullaby, Daddy was a melting pot

[00:02:05] His philosophy was to be up, you gotta push someone down

[00:02:08] That was all I knew 'cause that was all I was around

[00:02:11] I found the flaws in his methods from the cause in myself

[00:02:14] Father Diablo: Only an uncle to every one else

[00:02:19] He taught me how to talk without looking in your eyes

[00:02:21] Gave me a nine to five, made me ignore the lullabies

[00:02:24] A puddle of the dried tears shade me colorless

[00:02:27] And categorize me as a baby failing to realize how far away his mother is

[00:02:31] Our relationship hovered with strength, even though it's invisible

[00:02:37] Hard to quit hearing her poetry. Piercing emotions leak

[00:02:40] With the notes she hits I float, defying gravitation

[00:02:44] The only mom I have is in my imagination. So it goes

[00:02:46] One day daddy's gonna die, choking on the gun he bought

[00:02:48] And when that day comes I shall return to my mother

[00:02:50] And we'll walk hand in hand straight to heaven

[00:02:54] And when the clouds part, I'll tell her that I love her

[00:02:57] And she'll accept with an open heart. No question

[00:03:01] Unless dad was right, and she really was a monster

[00:03:05] Maybe her silhouette reflects the hell of his own childhood

[00:03:11] Maybe she's so insane, no one cared to help

[00:03:15] But if nothing else on this earth could mend her spirit, I bet my smile could

[00:03:19] The volumes of her songs decreased the older that I grew

[00:03:21] Daddy became my only influence of attitude

[00:03:24] Now I'm robotically imperialistic, and careless of people

[00:03:27] A trait inherited by my parent's omnipotent ego

[00:03:29] His symbol's the eagle, but his child isn't free

[00:03:31] You'll see no sign around my neck saying I'm proud to be me

[00:03:34] I'm not grown up, the concept of adulthood is dead

[00:03:37] He left scars on my back when my notebook was read

[00:03:41] I guess the grass is always greener on the other side

[00:03:44] And intangible experience structures one leviathan

[00:03:57] From the Koran to leprechauns

[00:04:09] Since when did America fall in between Lebanon and Ireland?

[00:04:41] Daddy don't think that I forgot
