[Intro]:
[Verse 1]:
Sensitivity deprived
I can't feel a thing inside
I blamed my father in my youth
Now as a father, I blame the booze
I have become uncomfortably numb
[Verse 2]:
Sensitivity deprived
All my sympathy prescribed
I used to struggle in my youth
Now I'm used to struggling for two
I have become uncomfortably numb
[Chorus]:
The lessons
The lessons
Are so much
Are so much
Less obvious
The further you get from home
The further I get from home
How will you exist
How will I exist
Without consequence?
I'll let you know
[Verse 3]:
We were gentle to begin
When I pushed you around to break you in
Now whenever I try to be clear with you
I only end up feeling see-through
I've tried, but you've won
Comatose, like father like son
[Chorus]:
The lessons
The lessons
Are so much
Are so much
Less obvious
The further you get from home
The further I get from home
How will you exist
How will I exist
I don't want to know
Blacked out, protected
I just want you home
I'll make new friends in the ambulance
