I’m the shadow
that usurped the kingdom
the young buried the old
Now I am a ghost
but I made that decision
such a long time ago
Where can I go?
unwittingly murdered
My identity unknown
I’m done
Chorus:
It’s all behind us, It’s all behind us now
I am King Laius
It’s all behind us now
rolling in my grave
Left my rage in the road
The son skates on by
while I carry the load
This child of pride
drinks from his cup
of vanity and bile
I have no desire
to suffer twice
right now or (in) my past life
I’m done...yeah
The son goes blind
Forefathers cry
While I'm
Rolling in my grave
It's all behind us...
