Taken for granted Taken to task I lost my bearings I dropped my mask Over the limit Under the curse Got sick on the main course, but here's the dessert You can almost hear a pin drop where it hurts the most You can feel the hammer fall after Dad finishes His last work And I know I'm reeling Life goes so fast I know I'm bleeding, but it's only a scratch And all of your maps are torn and rent The surveyor's findings are of dubious content With all that you swallowed, you're starving like before The entrance to your dream home looks like a prison door
You can almost hear a pin drop where it hurts the most You can feel the hammer fall after Dad's ugly work They say that you're dreaming The third time down fast I know I'm bleeding Yes, but it's only a scratch So come all ye weary Ones that languish Come ye disconsolate Sore distressed I heard my Dad's voice near the river of pain Near the river of love They were one and the same You can almost hear a pin drop where it hurts the most You can hear the hammer fall after Dad finishes His best work
