Paul Still Love His Daughter lyrics

[Verse 1]

He said that when he dies

He wants me to flip him over

Pull the gravel from his eyes

And tell the family he was sober

I said I couldn’t lie

But I pretend I didn’t know about the fact that it was planned

At my home the night before

He jumped off the Smith bridge or at least that was his threat

So I told him that if he wanted to fly

Why not off a big mountain?

It distracted him for long enough

That he doubted his plan of offing off himself

And so he asked me for a beer instead

We cheered to that control

Of how he escaped his own death

Of how no one can tell him whether or not he is bipolar

Or an alcoholic, drug addict, or maybe just a man

Who is sad because he had a daughter who died in a crash one summer

He was scared to tell his parents because they were Catholic

He thought that they would judge him for the wrong that he had did

He was scared to tell his parents cuz he thought they wouldn’t understand

Colorado 1992, love's sick!

So in search of meaning and a grand purpose to live he joined the American army

Where they train you how to kill

He learned of how they failed to mention that there may also be means

To getting hooked on shooting things

Like methamphetamine at will

He returned with money and some bad habits he couldn’t break

He fell in love and shoved the past so far under

Overwhelmed with things that placed him in a trap

And when he got home he found out that the one he loved had stole all the cash

[Bridge]

So he had to wire money

That he borrowed from his mother

To take her off life support

Paul still loves his daughter

So he had to wire money

That he borrowed from his mother

To take her off life support

Paul still loves his daughter

[Hook]

Oh paul still loves his daughter

Cuz just the other day

He began to cry

And tried to look the other way

And say that it must be the weather

Or the mental illness that he has

I listened the best that I could

Paul still loves his daughter

[Verse 2]

He said that when he dies

He wants me to flip him over

Pull the gravel from the eyes

And tell the family he’s in heaven

I asked him if he’s sure that heavens real

He said he wouldn't know

So I asked him if he thought his plan was a bit risky

He said he didn’t care

Because there wasn’t a chance in the world

For him to remain happy for longer than 30 seconds

I said I can’t imagine how it feels to feel so hopeless

How I hoped that he could sense that someone he loved cared for him

[Outro]

Oh Paul still loves his daughter

Oh Paul still loves his daughter

Oh Paul still loves his daughter

Oh Paul still loves his daughter

I pulled the gravel from his eyes and told the family he's okay
