Father Lyrics

I didn't know how to begin this

Didn't want to talk to you at all

I didn't owe you nothing, didn't know what to say

And you didn't know how to call

You left us a long time ago

Left her with low expectations

She's a tough woman, three kids to hold tight

But we never had a relation

So father, tell me, what's been on your mind

I'm done thinking 'bout my mum crying at night

I'm done being angry, but still I feel lost

Well, in heaven you now pay the cost

Guess a father just isn't a must

Seven years ago you died with a bang

Everyone's sorry but I can't pretend

Pretend to feel different than I felt before

You weren't there and then you weren't even more

There's nothing to miss, if it never happened

I can't cry about the days we never shared

A part of me vanished that I didn't know

A father's love I've never heard

So father, tell me one reason why I

Should grieve and not go on with living my life

You tried to drown your sorrows but lost

Well, in heaven you now pay the cost

Guess a father just isn't a must

So father, tell me, what's been on your mind

I'm done thinking 'bout my mum crying at night

I'm done being angry, but still I feel lost

Guess in heaven you now pay the cost

Well, a father just isn't a must
