lyrics

Father, Father
All life has gone to hell
Without you here
I guess it’s just as well

The clouds have gathered
It’s been raining since that day
What have we done
To have you taken away?

Now I know
A house doesn’t make a home
Where do I start?
There’s no blueprint for broken hearts

Our survival
Through what seems to be the worst
These deadlines for demise
Wish I could see the view from your eyes

Well hello, Dad
I can’t believe the time
It’s already been a year
But just a day in my mind

And I don’t know how I’m supposed to survive


With you gone
Everything has changed
Mom always cries
And the world has gone insane

People don’t seem good anymore
Everyone will let you down!
Hiding knives right behind their backs
No decency to be found



Well hello, Dad
I can’t believe the time
It’s already been three years
But just a day in my mind



And I don’t know how I’m supposed to survive



Oh, Father, Father

Is it just a bad dream?

Have I become the object

Of some wicked scheme? 


It’s getting harder just for me to feel alive

When I look to the sky
To the cosmos asking why
Wish I could call you on the phone
And know…

Do we all end up alone? 



Well hello, Dad
I can’t believe the time
It’s already been five years
But just a day in my mind


And I don’t know…how I’m supposed to survive



Oh, Father, Father

Is it just a bad dream?

Have I become the object

Of some wicked scheme?


It’s getting harder just for me to stay alive



It’s getting harder just for me to feel alive.
