"WATCH MY DADDY DIE" lyrics
"WATCH MY DADDY DIE"
"You're either livin' or you're dyin.'" Those were the last words Red's father said to him before leaving him and his mother penniless at the Sierra Shadows trailer park in Reno, Nevada. Little did the old drunk bastard know, Red would track him down twelve years later lookin' for revenge. And this time, Daddy had no where to run. (Uno, dos, tres, cuatro!)
My momma always told me "Boy, when you grow up, don't you play with guns
You'll end up dead or in the pen, I can't afford to lose my only son"
And my daddy never taught me shit, that son' bitch left us when I was nine
'Cause ever since that man vanished I promised I would watch my daddy die
I'd watch him die
Watch my daddy die
Watch my daddy die
Watch my daddy die
Well, I grew up and got real tough and went and bought a brand new .38
I shot at birds, beer cans, and squirrels, and photos of my old man's rotten face
My momma said my daddy's friend had told her that he had move down to Van Nuys
So I took a bus to Los Angeles 'cause it was time to watch my daddy die
I'd watch him die
Watch my daddy die
Watch my daddy die
Watch my daddy die
When I got to town, I looked around, and I sat down inside the local bar
And to my surprise, I swear to God, his sorry ass just walked right through the door
I looked at him, he looked at me, the man turned pale in disbelief
And then he screamed when I said "Hey, dad! Remember me?"
Then I grabbed him by the shirt, threw him in the dirt
I pulled my fist back, I told him that this ones 'bout to hurt
"This ones for hittin' mom
This ones for leavin' me
This ones for leavin' us with a goddamn broken family!"
I pulled out my .38, point the barrel at his face
I asked my daddy if there's any last words that he'd like to say
"Son, son don't do it! I'm sorry, I'm sorr-"
Ha-ha
Man, I love to watch my daddy die
Watch my daddy die
Watch my daddy die
Watch my daddy die

Took a little bit of Jack just to read the room
Talked about both our lives underneath the moon
You fell in love with a psycho, I fell right off of this...

And work your whole life
We're all just rats inside a twisted maze
Where profit is time
Fill me with chemicals
And sell me a cure
We're all just plastic little piggies

Sawyer Hill - "Hear From Me" Reading between the lines gave me a heart attack
I guess I'll close my eyes
Let it fade to black
If I start to fall don't catch me
If I reach out don't text me
If I lean in don't kiss me
But I know...

Through the alleys
Through the battles with our eyes closed

Would tell me I should fight
Would you tell me
Tell me
If these demons let go...
