This is the song about being a parent and wishing that you could stop time so that no harm could ever come to anyone that you’re responsible for.

A Family Man

01.
last night the wind broke down the chapel
and from out there your god escaped
remember when he bet on an apple 
without consent, young Mary was raped.

and therefore you killed down his offspring 
a son too young and far too weak
you built a cross under his left wing
but he revived in less than a week.

chorus 1
he escapes your chapel now
and he calls his father quite wild
he’s all scared, he takes a bow
but no parent can outlive his child, child

all stars are fading
all suns are shading 
black holes are swallowing dreamers
black deeper, deeper… deepest
time disappears 
uprising fears
nothingness conquers expansion
the void comes, the void comes
no run.

02.
and now he haunts the hereafter
poor scared child, fatherless soul
he scans quite every single eon
but each eternity’s a hole.

no cross to worship his loved father
no face that could resemble him
it’s only darkness after darkness 
a void filled only with his sins.

chorus 2
he escapes now
and he calls his father
he’s so scared
and he’s wide alone
but no father 
can outlive his child though
suns had faded
since his soul was blown

3.
can’t find you, can’t find you
can’t even find you in my blood
father of mine, father of mine 
turn the water into wine.

where are you, where are you
be that Lazarus for me
show yourself, show yourself 
kill me now or set me free.

chorus 1
he escapes your chapel now
and he calls his father quite wild
he’s all scared, he takes a bow
but no parent can outlive his child, child

all stars are fading
all suns are shading 
black holes are swallowing dreamers
black deeper, deeper… deepest
time disappears 
uprising fears
nothingness conquers expansion
the void comes, the void comes
no run.

chorus 2
he escapes now
and he calls his father
he’s so scared
and he’s wide alone
but no father 
can outlive his child though
suns had faded
since his soul was blown
