lyrics
The apple... it didn't fall far from the tree.
I don't know why you cannot see,
that you are exactly like him?
You've tried, and resisted and travelled so far.
But you can't escape who you are.
You are exactly like him.
The wallpaper will smell new for a while.
You might even managed a smile while everything feels fresh.
But the apple tastes so bitter underneath.
The stain of decaying teeth, and decomposing flesh.
You're just a chip off his old shoulder/block.
It was never for certain until you gave in.
Now behold your future... you're just like him.
You threw in the towel, replaced with a trowel.
You're digging yourself into black.
If you go too far, there'll be no turning back.
The wallpaper will smell new for a while.
You might even managed a smile while everything feels fresh.
But the apple tastes so bitter underneath.
The stain of decaying teeth, and decomposing flesh.
I don't know why you cannot see,
that you are exactly like him?
You've tried, and resisted and travelled so far.
But you can't escape who you are.
You are exactly like him.
The wallpaper will smell new for a while.
You might even managed a smile while everything feels fresh.
But the apple tastes so bitter underneath.
The stain of decaying teeth, and decomposing flesh.
You're just a chip off his old shoulder/block.
It was never for certain until you gave in.
Now behold your future... you're just like him.
You threw in the towel, replaced with a trowel.
You're digging yourself into black.
If you go too far, there'll be no turning back.
The wallpaper will smell new for a while.
You might even managed a smile while everything feels fresh.
But the apple tastes so bitter underneath.
The stain of decaying teeth, and decomposing flesh.
