[Verse 1]
I'm lying awake in the dark
While you're out there screaming in Jefferson Park
Grooming the doom with the flames you incite
Crying like children for a dying white light
[Verse 2]
You're out there instilling your rage
While I'm in here with the children turning the page
When I hear you, my knuckles in fists closing tight
While you're crying like children for a dying white light
[Chorus]
Your daddy's gone, but you can't let it go
Your daddy's gone, but still you follow
With your faith and your fury and your bigoted spite
Basking in the glory of a dying white light
[Interlude]
[Verse 3]
I'm trying to undo what you've done
To the innocent minds of our daughter and son
I can't lie beside you if you're willing to fight
For your broken brotherhood and the dying white light
I'll be leaving in the morning at sunlight's first sight
And you'll be living alone in your dying white light
