Betrayer - Hundredth

He walks the stairs

And stands at the door.

Bottle in his right,

Fist in his left, clenched tight.

He’s already trampled over his wife,

The beginning of his family’s demise.

As he stares into his little girl’s eyes,

His little girl’s green eyes,

And to her surprise, he actually came home tonight.

But he’s still not acting right.

He knows better,

But he’s never experienced it.

It’s a night much like when he was young,

Mama’s on the floor again yelling

«I love you’s"at the man standing above her.

Who can only respond with violence.

He notices the similarities

And begins to scream off the balcony:

«I will never be like you.

I will always despise you.

Betrayer, where is your head?

Betrayer, where is your heart?

Betrayer, I will never be like you.

Betrayer, I will always despise you.»

Betrayer, where is your head?

Betrayer, where is your heart?

Betrayer, I will never be like you.

Betrayer, I will always despise you

He’s still outside screaming into the wind

About his distaste for his former kin.

His evil thoughts are pushing him to the edge

And now he’s flirting with that ledge.

Those green eyes look at him from behind.

She’s begging him to change his mind.

He shows his back to those he loves

When he dives headfirst into the earth.

He buries his head, hiding it from the world.

Then screams his little girl:

«I will always despise you.

Betrayer, where is your head?

Betrayer, where is your heart?

Betrayer, I will never be like you.

Betrayer, I will always despise you.»

I will always despise you.

I will always despise you.
