EP's Trailer Park - ROMA

at the sugar Mill, you grew up here
what you thought was love was fear
& you were raised with Christ
you learned not to break the ice
your grandma´ in a rocking chair
a little boy just standing there
you believed it was your mothers arms
you were lied to from the start

Verse 2
you met your father on Christmas eve
in the basement where no one could see
he was dressed up just like Santa Claus
but after that he never called
you got a job working for the state
playing cards on the coffee breaks
on the weekends where did you go?
leaving us on our own

you taught me skating at the hockeyrink
you said to me: I know what you think
it´s not like that, you don´t understand
your mum and me we´re still making plans
you moved away to a foreign place
from 12 to 20, I forgot your face
you became like a distant star
but I received all the Christmas cards

Verse 4
you remarried and you changed your ways
but with guilt still on your face
they say i look a lot like you
the nose, the eyes, the laughing too
the sugar factory they shut it down
& the ice rink on the edge of town
I keep a picture in my pocket still
of you and me standing at that sugar mill
