Year of the Knife
Eviction
[Intro]
Don't tell me to suppress my anger
You don't have the cure to prevent my danger
You don't have the cure to prevent my danger
Don't tell me to suppress my anger

[Verse 1]
Divorce breeds the pain
Two lovers lost their way
Trauma scars the home
So the kids result from blame
Mom's eating cleaning tablets to kill herself
'Cause she can't cope with the bills
Suffering from the need of pills

[Chorus]
Don't ask me why the way I am
Don't ask me why the way I am
Don't ask me why the way I am
A life this fragile
I will never understand

[Post-Chorus]
Eviction

[Verse 2]
Dad can't find a way
To connect with his sons
From child support, split custody
And the damage, it's done
Brothers leaving spoons
Bags of dust on the floor
Burnt into his little brother's brain
At sixteen, how do you explain?
[Chorus]
Don't ask me why the way I am
A life this fragile
I will never understand
Don't ask me why the way I am
I'm doing my best
I'm doing the best I can (I can)

[Bridge]
Eviction of a home
Eviction of a teenage soul
Eviction to this hole
Home is where the heart is evicted from your soul
Eviction of a home
Eviction of a teenage soul
Eviction
Eviction

[Outro]
Don't tell me to suppress my anger
You don't have the cure to prevent my danger
Danger, danger, danger, danger
