My broken dreams
Are the the bitter ash of failure in my mouth
And I know I'm heading south
I've always done what's right
But it's a no-win constant losing battle
My cage they love to rattle

I should run they'll never let me stay
I could run very far away
They took all the others
Sisters and their brothers
Made them think it matters to become fathers and mothers
I should run they'll never let me stay
I could run very far away
Blessed and anointed
Their faith is disjointed
Have to say that so far I'm fairly disappointed

There was a time when darkness faded
I had seen the sun
Those days are over and done

I am fairly disappointed
Thirty years in
Fairly disappointed
Thirty years of sin
Fairly disappointed
