Dyers Eve - Metallica

Dear mother, dear father

What is this hell you have put me through?

Believer, deceiver

Day in, day out, lived my life through you

Pushed onto me what’s wrong or right

Hidden from this thing that they call life

Dear mother, dear father

Every thought I’d think you’d disapprove

Curator, dictator

Always censoring my every move

Children are seen but are not heard

Tear out everything inspired

Innocence, torn from me without your shelter

Barred reality, I’m living blindly

Dear mother, dear father

Time has frozen still, what’s left to be?

Hear nothing, say nothing

Cannot face the fact I think for me

No guarantee it’s life as is

But damn you for not giving me my chance

Dear mother, dear father

You clipped my wings before I learned to fly

Unspoiled, unspoken

I’ve outgrown that fucking lullaby

Same thing I’ve always heard from you

Do as I say, not as I do

Innocence, torn from me without your shelter

Barred reality, I’m living blindly

I’m in hell without you

Cannot cope without you two

Shocked at the world that I see

Innocent victim, please rescue me

Dear mother, dear father

Hidden in your world you’ve made for me

I’m seething, I’m bleeding

Ripping wounds in me that never heal

Undying spite I feel for you

Living out this hell you always knew
