Tetsuo Kurata – Epitaph lyrics

I can’t believe it’s come to this, I can’t relive my life’s a mess
cross the line, intertwined, feel the scream of my design

GO!

I stood by your side, blackmailed me with pride
standing face to face, alone in my embrace
cold and on my own, laying on my stone
I did what was right, refusing to fight
this is where we’ve gone, as I’m on your lawn
I feel your true hate, sealing off my fate
spring still comes again, I still fall within
your thoughts have made me full of misery

I was your fake son, now forgotten one
you rejected me, making me complete
every time I think, it makes my heart sink
my pain beyond loss, so far out of touch
I can say the words, turning into swords
but I won’t forget, the day I left the nest
years pass from that day, I still feel mundane
still having my thoughts, what has freedom cost?

How do I live with all this pain?
How do I live with all this pain?
How do I live with all this pain?
Why do I live with all this pain?

You expect me to try to live this life
without even giving me my rights
you’ll never be anything of mine
you’ll never be any of my bloodline
oh my God

Why?

Why?

Why, why, why, why, why, why, why, why

How should I react to my heart caving in
what do I do about hate eating through my skin
no one could ever know what I’ve been through
without reliving it in my shoes
don’t tell me it’s ok when I cry
you can’t tell me I don’t want to die
look into my eyes there’s nothing alive
you threw me away with no good-bye

Suicide’s my way to stop the pain
a gun in my mouth because I’m insane
every night I wake up from the pain
I’ll never know how to be the same
this is what you get for hating your son
I find my slumber inside of a gun
you killed me by saying I’m not your son
I want my anguish to reach everyone

You expect me to try to live this life
without even giving me my rights
you’ll never be anything of mine
you’ll never be any of my bloodline
