Father Time (We're Taking It Hard)

Part I:
We're taking it hard, Father Time.
I kneel for you...
and I'm wondering, will you throw a break our way?
We're taking it hard, Father Time.
And I was wondering...
maybe you were fake, all the way?
I know that
we aren't perfect.
And God knows,
not worth it.
But Dad, I've grown a bit bored of praying
and saying:
"Dear God, we won't make it another day.
Dear god, why didn't we do this another way?"

We're taking it hard, Father Time,
We're taking it hard, Father Time...
We're taking it hard, Father Liar.

Part II:
I don't need your god.
I'm no ones fucking dog.
I will make it, I will make it,
make it out of this fog.
And I don't need your love.
Or to live my life above.
I will fly, fly away,
fly like a blackened dove.
I'm not gonna sit and whine.
Live life in my prime.
Cause I don't need your, I don't need your,
your fucking Father Time.

Part III:
In the darkness,
the almighty darkness,
a fire's burning bright.
An uptight fire,
my last desire.
He burns out each night in fright.
Break on through, Young one.
Blaze on through the dumb ones.
You'll always burn as bright,
living like a god each night.
And when the going gets tough,
and the tough gets going.
Just get up and run-
with your past still floating:
"Love me, hate me, your words will never save me.
Love me, hate me, no demon's gonna take me.
Love me, hate me, your words will never save me.
Love me, hate me, no god will ever favor me."
We're taking it hard, Father Time,
We're taking it hard, Father Time.
We're taking it hard, Father Liar...
