To Kill A King - Fictonal State Lyrics
I was not the problem like you were not the causeWe're sinking on a ship we said we'd jump two weeks beforeAnd I'll admit my subsequent words had no forceI had every intention just to leave you at the doorMy mundane future was tugging at my sleeveOf babies and changings and midnight feedsIf every father in the world thought the same as meWhat a state, what a state, what a state...There's no hole in my headAccusation: I just ain't the family typeFalling short and you've got better plansEscape artist and you just undermineIt was causing an effectYou said you'd kill it, you haven't yetStaring at a bed we shared as friendsAnd you stop smoking just to try for a whileWhile I provoke your nicotine habit, a habitStanding holding hands just as friends there's no loveWith no love this world would surely endThe world's end is no place to start life, we'd start a trendAnd I could not forgive you for thatWhat a stateWhat a state...What a stateWhy don't you stay?There's no hole in my headAccusation: I just ain't the family typeFalling short and you've got better plansEscape artist and you just undermineYour father tried to knock some sense into meHe goes, "After all, a man is just a man"As I recall he thumped your mom bloody hardy and bloody hungParenthood was a belt buckle to himWhat a stateWhy don't you stay?What a stateWhy don't you stay?What a stateWhy don't you stay?What a stateWhy don't you stay...oh...There's no hole in my headAccusation: I just ain't the family typeFalling short and you've got better plansEscape artist and you just undermineThere's no hole in my headAccusation: I just ain't the family typeFalling short and you've got better plansEscape artist and you just undermine
