William Varney - An Accepting Son Lyrics

You take your time
You tow the line
Reverse the sign
On every road
Your mother's fine
Though outta her mind
But you always were
An accepting son
No arguments
In self defense
Leave evidence
Of circumstance
Beyond control
So it's branded your soul
With memories
Too painfully numb
But you always were
The quiet one
The family child
An accepting son
Then you see it through the rain
Of a misty window pane
That father's driven off
And he won't be back again
I won't fall down
I won't fall down
I won't fall down
I won't fall down
There's a dark blue light in my mind
When I close my eyes
Then I see myself
In a different light
You close your mouth
Don't make a sound
You hold your breath
Till time stands still
Prepare yourself
To be overrun
But you always were
An accepting son
Then you start bending space
With your mind till you feel
That you can't tell the difference
What's dreams or what's real
I won't fall down
I won't fall down
I won't fall down
I won't fall down
There's the sunlight
Breaking through this darkened place
It's better to save yourself
Than saving face
I won't fall down
I won't fall down
I won't fall down
I won't fall down
I won't fall

You take your time
You tow the line
Reverse the sign
On every road
Your mother's fine
Though outta her mind
But you always were
An accepting son
No arguments
In self defense
Leave evidence
Of circumstance
Beyond control
So it's branded your soul
With memories
Too painfully numb
But you always were
The quiet one
The family child
An accepting son
Then you see it through the rain
Of a misty window pane
That father's driven off
And he won't be back again
I won't fall down
I won't fall down
I won't fall down
I won't fall down
There's a dark blue light in my mind
When I close my eyes
Then I see myself
In a different light
You close your mouth
Don't make a sound
You hold your breath
Till time stands still
Prepare yourself
To be overrun
But you always were
An accepting son
Then you start bending space
With your mind till you feel
That you can't tell the difference
What's dreams or what's real
I won't fall down
I won't fall down
I won't fall down
I won't fall down
There's the sunlight
Breaking through this darkened place
It's better to save yourself
Than saving face
I won't fall down
I won't fall down
I won't fall down
I won't fall down
I won't fall
