Day he died 
-----------

dear son, daddy's never coming back home 
he's passed on, claim him as one of your own 
my mind's numb, nothing has been clearer than this 
they found him on the rug at the golden gate inn
and i know, papa never intended for this 
to drag me, down into this bottomless pit 
i've been given just about all i can chew 
i think back on love's empty truth,

and i feel like the day he died 
i feel like the day he died 

walked in, cops talking standing around 
i kneeled down, his body lying there on the ground 
i begged please please let me get a minute with him 
and they said, don't touch anything kid 
it smelt like life just exit the room
I cried to the shell of a man I once knew 
my head's spinning way, out of control 
i can't believe its been three long, years ago 

and i feel like the day he died 
i feel like the day he died 

-solo- 

and i feel like the day he died 
i feel like the day 
and i feel like the day he died 
i feel like the day 

dear son, daddy's never coming back home 
i've gone wrong, wish i had the strength to live on 
i cant breathe, is there any air left in here 
i can't believe, everything i hold disappears 
it's gone on, time and time again i'm alone 
and dear son, daddys never coming back home 

and i feel like the day he died 
and i feel like the day he died 
and i feel like the day he died
