Stand Alone MOTHER! FATHER! You don't really know me anymore... Brother! Sister! The one you knew was lost years ago... Hey there! Bullies! Just try again to knock me down... No More! Brusies! It's now your turn to feel the pain... Insufficient ineptitudes made me susceptible and weak; My mind was open to all your half-truths, lies and deceit. But I know better now that I have grown up And I can stand alone without help from anyone. MOTHER! FATHER! Everything you ever wanted for me... Brother! Sister! I have become your worst enemy... Hey there! Bullies! I will not degrade myself with vengeance... No More! Losses! Your punishment has shown me how to be a better man... Immaturity and insecurity is the shield of fear now broken Watch me blaze now, hide your eyes from the light of my retribution And I know better now I have figured it all out So I can stand alone without help from anyone. LOVERS! HATERS! All of you will fade away... Preachers! Believers! There's no one up there to answer your prayers... MOTHER! FATHER! The son you beat til black, red and blue... Brother! Sister! We'll raise our kids much better than you... Through torture and pain, these scars are all the same, Remind me of the way, my father's mind was so insane But I can be better now That my father's life has come to an end And I can stand alone With only the fading memory of him; because... MOTHER, FATHER Will never again make you sore. Brother! Sister! The dark shadow man is no more... My life! My mind! Is all of me that I have left... My choice! My voice! Will speak out against evil hands... The pain my mother suffered, the broken bones and bruises, The blood that we all shed, at the hands of a demented man: He cannot hurt us now It's all in the past. Our future can be bright, We can be free at last... And we know better now that we have all grown up And we can stand alone without help from anyone. And I can stand alone.
