Life Underground

Verse I

He had his father’s eyes

He couldn’t hold him close

He told him not to speak

He could never raise him up

He could only raise a hand

On the day he walked away

He thought it pitiful

For days and days so dazed

But he probably should’ve known

That’s he’s been gone for such awhile

For how long?

Oh, once upon a child

Chorus

No more

Son shine

Do you care to know him now?

A shame

A ghost

A sound

of a life underground

Verse II

When he glanced his father’s face

He bled into the mirror

His words still crossed his heart

Afraid, he closed his eyes

‘cause he still hoped to die

And when he disappeared

He couldn’t let him go

As time kept passing on

But he probably should’ve known

That’s he’s been dead for such a while

For how long?

Oh, once upon a child

Chorus

No more

Son shine

Do you care to know him now?

A shame

A ghost

A sound

of a life underground
