Father Octopus - Blink lyrics

He had a great job, sweet wife Smart kids, he had a good life Slow to anger and a loyal friend He will last forever a gentleman And then it ended so quickly like it never begun And when he opened his eyes, he didn't see it coming It took eternity to lose my purity But when it finally happened, it happened so easily And it may be a story to you But it bores me to tears and apathy And when I stare at the light, my eyes blister and sting And when it shrinks to a dot, I will see everything And no one believes it when it's over But I'm left here In the aftermath, wretched and torn I get lost in the past, sometimes it's hard to move on Little in memory, little I share Little I listen, how little I care You may have prayed to God for everything you cherish today Remember when he giveth, he also taketh away And no one believes it when it's over But you're left here I'm gonna find it I'm gonna find it, get it back Here's to the lie you accept right now I'll blink away it all And you dare to a**ume your fortune spews immortality Well, I don't believe in it, no And when you're disenchanted and disappointed It's a rock that will pull you down And you will have to decide what's left behind You can struggle to breathe as you claw your Way back to your dream Or you could just let go Yeah, I'll let it go
