todd barriage - letters to rod (demo) lyrics

Loading...

[verse 1]
i think this is “so long”
i hope to god that i’m wrong
so i’ll just keep writing songs in my head
it’s the diary of me
the secrets i’ll never keep
like i’ve been thinking a lot about death

[pre+chorus]
i watched you die a thousand times
and with your frightened child eyes
you said

[chorus]
“son, i love you
that’s the only thing i know”
they have faith that you’ll get better
but you’re never coming home
i’m part of you
short temper and stunted growth
they have faith that you’ll get better
so i’m coping all alone
dad, i love you

[verse 2]
i remembеr the time
that i stayed up all night
writing out еvery thought in my head
came home with rage+filled eyes
you made my sister cry
i penned a letter i hoped you read
[pre+chorus]
you must have died a thousand times
and i’ll never forget what you said next

[chorus]
“son, i love you
that’s just hard for me to show
i promise you that i’ll do better
make our house feel like a home
i’m proud of you
you challenge me to grow
forcing me to face my demons
‘stead of coping all alone
son, i love you”

[bridge]
i watched you die a thousand times
i looked the man that i looked up to
in his frightened child eyes
and i said “everything’s okay”
“i’ll make sure everything is fine”
i watched you die

[chorus]
dad, i miss you
i just wanted you to know
that sarah called, we never talk
and she said, “todd, i’m coming home”
to be here with you
before your next and final stroke
accepting that you won’t get better
broken down, but not alone
dad, i love you
