Daddy where did you go
When I was 5 years old
My new born sister left crying in her crib
And now it's the shiny blade
And slicing not to make my heart or relationship to you

I have become the bastard son
The bitch of everyone
The failure I've become

No one thinks it's so bad to go to hell
You're all right so better leave it well
These words are running through my mind
Little black and art drawn kids
Just look at what you did
Just another bastard son like me

I have become the bastard son
The bitch of everyone
The failure I've become

I have become the bastard son
The bitch of everyone
The failure I've become

You failed all of your kids
And eternity of blind hate
Both from your diamond rings
And the souls you smoke
Mock your face in hell

Life
They're coming back to life
They're coming back to life
They're coming back to me

The revenge of a 5 year old boy

Life
Coming back to life
Coming back to life
Coming back to me

The revenge of a 5 year old boy

Life

    General Comment:these lyrics aren't entirely correct. these are a bit more correct...there are still a couple parts i could not decypher.

    Daddy where did you go
    When I was 5 years old
    My new born sister left crying in her crib
    Now with this shiny blade
    I'm slicing not to make my heart and relationship to you

    I have become the bastard son
    And the bitch of everyone
    The failure i've become

    Now it takes a lot to go to hell
    Your(?) life so better live it well
    These words are running through my mind
    Turn your back on all your kids
    Just look at what you did
    Just another bastard son like me

    I have become the bastard son
    The bitch of everyone
    The failure i've become

    You failed all of your kids
    An eternity of blind hate
    Flows from your diamond rings
    And the souls you smoked
    Mock your face in hell

    Lies
    They're coming back to life
    They're coming back to us
    They're coming back to me
    The revenge of a 5 year old boy.

    General Comment:This song is the most thought provoctic song that senses fail has put out. It hit's so close to home with Buddy(vocals) and thats what it takes to make a great song sometimes.

    General Comment:This song actually reminds me of both my parents. My dad left before I was born and was never around much. My mom didn't want a son, especially one that reminded her of her ex husband, so she never treated me to well. When I was in 2nd she left me with my grandparents and I haven't seen her in almost 8 years. I was fine for awhile but lately I've resented her more and more.

    General Comment:Great song by Senses Fail. If you know anything about Buddy Neilson you would come to find out that he was raised without a father. Thats why I think this song was written about his personal feelings towards his father. You can tell he still has alot of hate for his father and he conveys that. But Buddy is great because he saying that yeah, i am a bastard but at least i didn't leave my family behind or betray them.
