Surrogate (Remastered 2022) Lyrics

I was born an actor

Abusive Father

Lost Husband, Angry Son

Only in those roles

Did I come alive

I'm now a creature

A burden of proof

Smile through all of pain

Come back for more

Like the naïve

You've lost me, it's you

You never let go of me

Or the power you had

The pull, you chose to

Love and hate

Wishful Cul-de-sac

Willing Defeat

Wilful Zero-sum-ist

They brought me up to be

The man to date

First love with parents

Unrequited

Your genius named it hell

Grown victimised

Open wide

Childhood trauma

Finds a landscape

Your scars invisible

Your paths tangible

Who would've made?

Craters on the moon

Waves reached too soon

I've no replacement

You won't thank me till

I'm gone again

You've lost me, it's you

You never let go of me or the power

You had the pull

You chose to love and hate

The surrogate

The surrogate

The surrogate
