Exiled

Here tonight with her head in the noose Strung by the words of another Words from the aunt or the father But always dogmatic grandmother She'll be hung tonight once again So this whole family can be Reminded of how great Their thoughts and prayers can, and will always be When this girlfriend's left alone She'll cry herself to sleep Here tonight with his head in the noose How did we f**k up this bad? He came to them in trust He came to them for love He didn't know that this would be it Oh, they turn a blind eye To the son they never had He might as well just die And, when this man is left alone He doesn't sleep a wink Cause where they say he'll go when he's dead Oh, he knows it cannot be It's always been a losing fight Neither even wants to try They just lay down Defeated and set-straight It's always things in people's minds It's their fact their God's always right It's a fact there's two good people here Standing on the other side of that wall And, when this girlfriend's left alone She doesn't sleep a wink And, when this man is left alone He cries himself to sleep
