lyrics

You live alone in the shadow of your father's house
I'm convinced I was the only one you never loved
You live alone in the shadow of your father's house

I've never been never been in love with anyone
And it's feeling like the only thing I ever done
Never been in love with anyone

You live alone in the shadow of your father's house
I'm convinced I was the only one you never loved
You live alone in the shadow of your father's house

It's been a year but you haven't learned a single thing
And it's making me regret the time that I put in
It's been a year but you haven't learned a single thing

Settle in as the plane takes off
I'm left with a single thought
And all of our sons and daughters
The sheep being led to slaughter

You live alone in the shadow of your father's house
I'm convinced I was the only one you never loved
You live alone in the shadow of your father's house
