Bled to death in a bathroom
Forever humming a sad tune
Memories wish I could tattoo
Dad I've been meaning to ask you
Were you scared when you died?
Or did you feel relief?
Were you terrified, or just at peace?
When I came to collect your things, fourteen only a kid
Fingerprints on magazines, milk still in the fridge
It was like you had just stepped out, items all in their place
But there was one thing left out, you, blank space
Did you care about family?
Did you wish you'd abandon me?
Now you can't see what I became
Too weak to try to change
Can't speak I'm so angry
Recall your voice just vaguely
Sorta seems like lately, man it's all fading
And I worry that my life might be some kinda facsimile
Your doomed trajectory silently impressed on me
Shit happens to everyone, but this story's mine
And I can't help but think I'm next in line

I'll break your heart to keep you far from where all danger starts
