Letra de My Orphan Year

My father had dementia He lied in bed for months Once in a while he'd call (called?) me And asked me to fly down I told him that i'd love to But i had things to do and So he died without his son I heard about it drunk after a show My mother battled cancer For over 7 years I nursed her and i held her When time was running out The night before she left me I drank scotch all night and thanked Her for everything she'd done Raising me alone wasn't much fun So, dad, i can forgive you But i'll never forget Months i wouldn't see you And when i did you'd be Out with your friends all night Alone and only 9 I watched The Outer Limits Was scared out of my mind I wonder if you felt the same The days before you died I wonder if you even knew Why i wouldn't come around I bet if you had been there There wouldn't be this song 2006 Good bye, parents For once sincere 2006 - My orphan year
