[Lyric] For John (Richard Grewar)

For me, the tears stream down my face
And I’m left here to rip down the falls
This haze of noise won’t go
For you, can finally sleep
And rest among your weary friends
I know, the strain just finds you low

Father now, where’ve you gone
Watching my eyes burn
Why don’t take one last step
Not to look that way

Hope, clings to me like dust
While lovers come and fade on out the door
I’m bound to lose much more
Now you, I’m sure you’ll stick around
And watch me as I drown in darkened rooms
This empty canvas home

Father now, where’ve you gone
Watching my eyes burn
Why don’t take one last step
Not to look that way
Wait, who’s that walking, what’s that light for
What are they doing here, what have I done again
Now stop, listen, pull the sheets back
Your cold face hits the ground

Father now, where’ve you gone
Watching my eyes burn
Why don’t take one last step
Not to look that way

Father now, where’ve you gone
Watching my eyes burn
Why don’t take one last step
Not to look that way
