Defeater - Forgiver Forgetter [tekst, tłumaczenie i interpretacja piosenki]

He awoke in a cold sweat to those old sounds of heartbreak
His brother at his side screaming "This isn't your fight"
But that rush took over his head and he came to his mother's side
And he found himself alone with that devil rambling

"Oh, well the money's all gone
And she can't pay the rent with that needle in her arm."
He clenched his fists "What did she ever do to you
But raise us by herself when you were too drunk to come through?"
He took a swing, "That's some nerve you got kid."
"Yeah well they'll put that on your tombstone as the last thing that you said
I never wanted to kill a man like I want to kill you, man."

And the years of pain boiled over
Trading blows across the counter
And when that devil was down
He grabbed for his empty old friend Jack
He caught his eye as he took his last breath
And that vice went to his head again and again
And again and again and again and again and again

"Dear god what have you done?" cried out his mother
"That devil drunk was no father
Another name on a list for unpaid bookies and gambling debts."
That spiteful stare of his brother
"I ain't no forgiver forgetter
I'll make you pay for this, when you least expect it."
He washed the blood from his hands
Kissed his mother and stepped into cold night air
