lyrics

November 27th, 1979:
You move out, you leave the house, you leave your family behind.
And by Christmas a new “wife,” a new small and quiet life.
Well you were never there before, and even less after that.
So what happened after the fall?
You moved to Vashon and left it all.
And some still came and saw you…
until the leaders told them not to.
And your life got much more quiet
as you retreated deep inside you.
This was the time of hundred scams
and a thousand easy roads.
You raised yourself an opium garden
when the assignment was raise a son.
When I go back in time I say,
“Brad, you can help people, so help your son.”
But you’ve taken a blow.
You’re so low you can’t hear me
And the bell can never be unrung.
What is required of a father?
What does a father have to do?
When will the men of this world step up?
My little one, I promise I’ll be there for you.
