Father Do You Hear Me? Lyrics

Another night falls

Just like the night from which you never woke

Now my heartbeat stalls

Can't set aside those final words you spoke

Father, do you hear me?

The hammer fell by my own fated hand

Father, do you hear me?

That grievous night I'll never understand

The tolling of bells

With every ring, the wheels of progress turn

In my private hell

See everything, through windows watch it burn

Father, do you see me?

I kneel before you cloaked in leaden sorrow

Father, do you see me?

That I may play the game again tomorrow

A plea for sweet release

The battle brought you peace

But will the raging tempest ever cease?

Father, can you help me?

Is this a doom or glory I've created?

Father, can you help me?

Give me the strength to see it elevated

With you inside my heart I feel elated

Could I have saved you, had I only waited?

Father… Father…
