Father was no role model
But I had no one
Walking in his shoes
For so long
Well you stopped living all those years ago
Watching the pain roll on
Grasping the air from every empty echo
Echo, echo, echo
Hold on,
hold on
Don't cry
Because nothing ever happens
In your hands You abandoned
Threatened, struck Or offended
You made us what we are
Lost and strong
Break this violent chain And end this
Hold on,
hold on
Don't cry
Because nothing ever happens Hold on
In the December light you cried Hold on
In the December light you died Don't cry
Everybody knows,
everybody knows Because nothing ever happens
Everybody knows,
everybody knows You're standing on the end of a cliff
Hold on You're standing on the end of a cliff
Hold on Everybody knows, everybody knows
Because nothing ever happens Everybody knows,
everybody knows
Hold on Don't crucify yourself
Hold on Don't crucify yourself
Don't cry Everybody knows, everybody knows
Because nothing ever happens Everybody knows,
everybody knows you
Everybody knows,
everybody knows you Everybody knows,
everybody knows you
Everybody knows, everybody
knows you Everybody knows, everybody knows you
Everybody knows,
everybody knows you Everybody knows,
everybody knows you
Everybody knows, everybody
knows you Everybody knows, everybody knows you
