The Boy In The Attic
Green Carnation

A blessing from below, born a sweet child like foretold
Could it the boy that I used to be
Oh, father please forgive me if I've done you wrong
For how long will you let me suffer all alone

Father! Please!

A father's touch, a beating one too much

Hiding in the closet waiting for him to sleep
What others saw of me, was what dad wanted them to see

Father! Please!

I want to taste the free, like nothing ever used to be
I want to taste what is mine
Am I evil, could it be, that I am the one they fear
Look at me, I am the sweetest one you'll ever see

I made it through the old into a brand new life
No more hiding in the closet, waiting for him to sleep

Into the shadows of old
Strange memories of time gone

I was never rightfully yours
Story's like mine, that were never told
Out of the window feeling free
That is how I killed me

Lyrics by Green Carnation

  A Place For Me   Alone   Between the Gentle Small and the Standing Tall   Childsplay Part I   Childsplay Part II   Crushed to Dust   Dead but Dreaming   Forced out of Sleep   Maybe?   Pile of Doubt   Purple Door, Pitch Black   Rain   Sweet Leaf   The Burden is Mine... Alone   The Everlasting Moment   The Quiet Offspring   Wicked Game
