Lyrics
Three years now complete
Since the day that you left us
No flowers at your headstone
Calls for a sober justice
I used to think you cared
About your own flesh and blood
But the lines became blurred
You were clearly never capable of love
I sat and watched by the window
For the day that you'd return
Like a knight in shining armor
I just hoped you could be stronger
And I recall the rain kept falling
The tail lights dimmed
I should have known you'd never come home
I've never felt so alone
As I walk along the same road
That turned my heart to stone
Now that baby brother is just a sad reminder
Of the promises, the promises to my mother and I
That you couldn't keep
I sat and watched by the window
For the day that you'd return
I should have known you'd never come home
Oh father
Oh father
You'll never be the one to pick me up
Teach me to be a man when times get tough
Tell me you're proud at the end of the day
Sometimes goodbyes are the hardest to say
I never got one
No flowers at your headstone
No flowers from me
No peace for me
I hope you rest in peace
I hope you rest in peace
But the rest of us piece it all together
