My Father's Dreams Lyrics

My destiny's made out for me
Everything that I see
Living someone else's dreams
Will not fade away

Everything you didn't get
Living out your old regrets
All your worried loss I'be met
Straight in the face

I don't see through your eyes
I don't touch through your hands
I don't walk in your shoes
I won't live out your plans

For all the things you never made
and all the words you never said
and just what do you expect?
I can't live for you

Does it make me any less
Not living inside your regrets
I wasn't born inside your steps
But I'll do my best I don't see through your eyes
I don't touch through your hands
I don't walk in your shoes
I won't live out your plans

And I'll never be what you want me to be
And I'll never see what you want me to see
And you'll never get what you want out of me
And I'll never live out my father's dreams

I'm sorry what you never had
It's not my place to repeat that
In hopes that I'll get some of what
You let slip away

The power and the hungry fear
You always felt was much too near
Let's turn and go someplace where
We can stand face to face
