Alabama trailer park they call home
Boys standing at attention in the corner, his own
Dirt fight, scorpion crawling the wall
By the way Father, could you please beat me some more?
Anger rising up inside him yet again
Tell me you've got a plan
Deaf and blind, I'm livin' with the lepers and
You wanna hold my hand?
Cold Alaska hiding under the time
Stretch aluminum foil cross the window at night
Mother crying, calling out up the stair
By the way Father, do you even care that I'm scared?
Anger rising up inside him yet again
Tell me you've got a plan
Deaf and blind, I'm livin' with the lepers and
You wanna hold my hand?
Devil rising up inside him yet again
Tell me you've got a plan
Deaf and blind, I'm livin' with the lepers and
You wanna hold my hand?
Generation three, solitary, alone
By the way Father, created hell on my own
Anger rising up inside him yet again
Tell me you've got a plan
Deaf and blind, I'm livin' with the lepers and
You wanna hold my hand?
Anger rising up inside him yet again
Tell me you've got a plan
Deaf and blind, I'm livin' with the lepers and
You wanna hold my hand?
Boys standing at attention in the corner, his own
Dirt fight, scorpion crawling the wall
By the way Father, could you please beat me some more?
Anger rising up inside him yet again
Tell me you've got a plan
Deaf and blind, I'm livin' with the lepers and
You wanna hold my hand?
Cold Alaska hiding under the time
Stretch aluminum foil cross the window at night
Mother crying, calling out up the stair
By the way Father, do you even care that I'm scared?
Anger rising up inside him yet again
Tell me you've got a plan
Deaf and blind, I'm livin' with the lepers and
You wanna hold my hand?
Devil rising up inside him yet again
Tell me you've got a plan
Deaf and blind, I'm livin' with the lepers and
You wanna hold my hand?
Generation three, solitary, alone
By the way Father, created hell on my own
Anger rising up inside him yet again
Tell me you've got a plan
Deaf and blind, I'm livin' with the lepers and
You wanna hold my hand?
Anger rising up inside him yet again
Tell me you've got a plan
Deaf and blind, I'm livin' with the lepers and
You wanna hold my hand?

Alabama trailer park they call home
Boy standing at attention in the corner his own
Terrified, scorpion crawling the wall
By the way father, could you please beat me some more?

Anger rising up inside him yet again
Tell me you got a plan
Deaf and blind, I'm living with the lepers and
You want to hold my hand

Cold Alaska, hiding, bundled up tight
Stretch aluminum foil 'cross the window at night
Mother crying, calling out up the stairs
By the way father, do you even care that I'm scared?

P.S. 7dust is wickedly motherfuckin kick ass and gueveralives is a asshole. Jerry Cantrell Kicks Ass
We'll Miss U Layne!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
In the second verse the mother crying could refer to the mother yelling at her husband to quit beating the boy, which is what I thought the first couple of times I heard this, or it could be the child laying in bed listening to his father abuse his mother. I now believe this to be truth for several reasons. During his childhood (verse 1), he vows not to be like his father and abuse his child. However, his anger as a child is now being vented on his wife, because he's pissed that his mother did nothing to stop his father from beating him ("Boy's standing at attention in the corner, [on] his own").
The third guy (generation three) is someone, possibly Jerry, messed up from his childhood experiences and possibly inflicting self abuse.
So, essentially, it's about these guy's whose anger management gets progressively better through each generation, but they still have some problems.
By the way, I don't think that this song is garbage, just a bit generic and less than what I expected.
