lyrics

How could you not look back
At your own at what you came from
And find all the same ancient shame
Is still the measure of how far you’ve come

When I was fifteen
You put all these deadbolts on our house
And kept the keys and the connection to me
Sorta blinked out

I never understood you after that
But I came to be grateful
For the way that the years
Let me down

Now it’s easy to welcome
Any light to be found
And it’s around you and your new
Widower now

Meanwhile my own bride and I
We’re looking at the odds
And it’s a full-time job
To keep giving a fuck

It’s a cheap shot
But it’s true
All anyone seems to know how to do
Is get caught up

When it was over
I signed as a witness
Stared at the sight
Of my father’s name

I spent a long afternoon with the family
Such as it was
And the clear-cut lakeside view
Was humming

As I talked with my sister’s eldest one
Abigail
About leaving home as
Something we were owed and
About what was coming
