DAD
When i was forced to say goodbye
There was nothing to prepare me
I told myself you were bad
That you would look bad
But dad u didn't look bad
You looked terrible
I told myself u were sick
But u would make it through
Because you are my hero
And heroes don't die
Heroes just need breaks sometimes
I wasn't ready for my hero
To take a break
A break you wouldn't be returning from
you were just resting
i told you “I’ll see you tomorrow”
But tomorrow would never come
Because that night
You were taken from me
You were swept away by the angles
You weren't coming home
Not soon
not ever
For you live way up in the clouds
Higher than i can ever go
And one day everyone will be swept up
By the angles and will be reunited
Once again sharing stories
like we Never were apart
There was nothing to prepare me
I told myself you were bad
That you would look bad
But dad u didn't look bad
You looked terrible
I told myself u were sick
But u would make it through
Because you are my hero
And heroes don't die
Heroes just need breaks sometimes
I wasn't ready for my hero
To take a break
A break you wouldn't be returning from
you were just resting
i told you “I’ll see you tomorrow”
But tomorrow would never come
Because that night
You were taken from me
You were swept away by the angles
You weren't coming home
Not soon
not ever
For you live way up in the clouds
Higher than i can ever go
And one day everyone will be swept up
By the angles and will be reunited
Once again sharing stories
like we Never were apart
