Please Be Kind, Rewind Lyrics

Father

I'm sorry

For all you did

To me

I didn't deserve you

You see?

You see?

Father

I'm sorry

For all you couldn't do

For me

I was just a kid

Don't you see?

Don't you see?

Father

I gave you

The plague

You carried my demon

Away

I commanded you to leave

Even though mom and you

Were just married

Father

I broke your nose

I killed your car

You were right, I suppose

You offered me

Your name

And in return

I gave you shame

So please be kind

And don't give hate

I know you can do it

It's not too late

So please be kind

And let's rewind

Oh, just be kind

And rewind

Father

You were mean

You cursed me

Said you never loved me

You beat me

Til I cried

Your words made me die

Inside

Father

You shoved me away

Taught wolves how to dig

My mother's grave

You called me names

But didn't call me son

Said you'd take a bullet for me

But you held the gun

So please be kind

And don't give hate

I know you can do it

It's not too late

So please be kind

And let's rewind

Oh, just be kind

And rewind

Father

I understand

While just a boy

You were forced to be a man

You were raised

On the streets

Compared to your mother

The slum was sweet

You were left alone

In a new land

So far from home

While your mother had men

She made TV your friend

Father

You learned not to trust

You learned not to give help

You learned not to love

Anyone

But yourself

But your self

You learned there's no god above

You worshipped women

And free love

You beat other people

Before they beat you

No one to love

No one to love you

No one to love you

So please be kind

And don't give hate

I know you can do it

It's not too late

So please be kind

And let's rewind

Oh, just be kind

And rewind

And Father

Don't you see

Your past

Is killing me

Your past

Is killing me

I'm crazy

I'm crazy

So let's forgive

So We Can live

So let's forgive

So we can live

So you can live

So I can live

So we can live

Together

Together
