lyrics

my family has a ritual for father's day
they keep my father's ashes in the closet
my family has a funny way of looking at the things
that other people consider so important

so long my dad so long
I wonder if somebody knew you secrets
so long you where sitting on the couch
now you're resting in a box...

we have the same broken bones, we tripped upon the same old stones
we cheated on each other for a good time
happiness affection and care, those we left for the rest

yet this timeI'm going to take you out for a walk
I'll see to it that you sit at the table
and I'll manage to hold my rage on the side no to spoil
this divine moment of inspiration

so long my dad so long
I wonder if somebody knew your secrets
how I wish you hadn't left me so alone
now you're resting in a box
