I still recall the time when I was 17
The officer who warned you both about me (about me)
And in the years before
I knew you've seen it, too
The warning signs were scars of future rescue (future rescue)
(Tell her later)
The words of gratitude escape me
(Tell her later)
The shit I put you through
I wish that I could take it back
Was I ever hard to love?
My life is owed to you
This all is tribute
Father, if you are the one
The apple fell so close to
I understand the things you did
What's going wrong?
And who else is to blame?
Our son is gone, our son is gone
Never thought I'd wanted to
Tell her later
The words of gratitude escape me
Tell her later
The shit I put you through
I wish that I could take it back
Was I ever hard to love?
My life is owed to you
This all is tribute
How did you get any sleep at night?
How did you get any sleep at night?
How did you get any sleep at night?
How did you get any sleep at night?
Tell her later
Tell her later
What did I put you through?
I wish that I could take it back
Was I ever hard to love?
My life is owed to you
This all is tribute
I wish that I could take it back
I wish that I could take it back
I wish that I could take it back
Was I ever hard to love?
