kristoff krane - paul still loves his daughter lyrics
[verse 1]
he said that when he dies
he wants me to flip him over
pull the gravel from his eyes
and tell the family he was sober
i said i couldn’t lie
but i pretend i didn’t know about the fact that it was planned
at my home the night before
he jumped off the smith bridge or at least that was his threat
so i told him that if he wanted to fly
why not off a big mountain?
it distracted him for long enough
that he doubted his plan of offing off himself
and so he asked me for a beer instead
we cheered to that control
of how he escaped his own death
of how no one can tell him whether or not he is bipolar
or an alcoholic, drug addict, or maybe just a man
who is sad because he had a daughter who died in a crash one summer
he was scared to tell his parents because they were catholic
he thought that they would judge him for the wrong that he had did
he was scared to tell his parents cuz he thought they wouldn’t understand
colorado 1992, love’s sick!
so in search of meaning and a grand purpose to live he joined the american army
where they train you how to k!ll
he learned of how they failed to mention that there may also be means
to getting hooked on shooting things
like methamphetamine at will
he returned with money and some bad habits he couldn’t break
he fell in love and shoved the past so far under
overwhelmed with things that placed him in a trap
and when he got home he found out that the one he loved had stole all the cash
(2x)
[bridge]
so he had to wire money
that he borrowed from his mother
to take her off life support
paul still loves his daughter
[hook]
oh paul still loves his daughter
cuz just the other day
he began to cry
and tried to look the other way
and say that it must be the weather
or the mental illness that he has
i listened the best that i could
paul still loves his daughter
[verse 2]
he said that when he dies
he wants me to flip him over
pull the gravel from the eyes
and tell the family he’s in heaven
i asked him if he’s sure that heavens real
he said he wouldn’t know
so i asked him if he thought his plan was a bit risky
he said he didn’t care
because there wasn’t a chance in the world
for him to remain happy for longer than 30 seconds
i said i can’t imagine how it feels to feel so hopeless
how i hoped that he could sense that someone he loved cared for him
[outro]
oh paul still loves his daughter (4x)
i pulled the gravel from his eyes and told the family he’s okay
