Dear Old Dad 02:59
Dear Old Dad I used to love you But now you’re just a stranger Buried six feet under I wrote you a letter Late last night About my insecurities Our last fight I can't change me No matter how I try Just like your drinking Or when I lie Dear Old dad You know I miss you But I can’t forgive you Dear Old dad I used to love you But now you’re just a stranger Buried six feet under We never get along Just like your rehab You get under my skin Like a permanent scab You’re a failure I’m a failure’s son I look in the mirror What will soon become Dear Old dad You know I miss you But I can’t forgive you Dear Old dad I used to love you But now you’re just a stranger Buried six feet under Dear Old dad You know I miss you But I can’t forgive you Dear Old dad I used to love you But now you’re just a stranger Buried six feet under

What ever happened to the simple things Like games of S.K.A.T.E on the blacktop in front of school Or bike rides through the neighborhood From long drives to the jersey shore All the walks down howard boulevard Where we’d bullshit for hours on end I wish that this would never end Lets run away like when we were young Maybe we can find happiness again Even if it’s not the same So remember good times past and raise your glasses high So here’s to you, this songs for you Late nights spent out past curfew Climbing back in through the window Hoping that we don’t get caught All those summer nights we spent Running through the neighbors yard Wanting to stay young forever I wanna stay young forever Lets run away like when we were young Maybe we can find happiness again Even if it’s not the same So remember good times past and raise your glasses high So here’s to you, this songs for you This songs for you Lets run away like when we were young Maybe we can find happiness again Even if it’s not the same So remember good times past and raise your glasses high So here’s to you, this songs for you ‘Cause I miss you

I’ve failed a hundred times just to be where I’m at now And I’d fail a hundred more just to kiss you on the bow Of a ship I had in a dream Where it was just you and me And we would lay in the sand For a never ending summer I had it all worked out yeah I thought that we’d go far But I’ve since changed my address To a stool right at the bar Where I sit and drink All my lonely nights away And I just try to forget every promise that we made Well that summer came and went And now that’s all in the past My hearts been broke and mended And now I’m sure it’s made of glass There are scratches on the surface And there’s cracks that run straight through but some where out there is a repair kit and a book on what to do I had it all worked out yeah I thought that we’d go far` But I’ve since changed my address To a stool right at the bar Where I sit and drink All my lonely nights away And I just try to forget every promise that we made When you said you didn’t love me I felt my mind begin to whirl And now I feel like atlas With the whole weight of the world Sitting firmly on my shoulders And now there’s no reprieve From the pain I feel in my chest Every time that I breathe

I don’t know why I hate myself My parents don’t care Put me on the shelf They don’t listen They don’t understand They wont pay three hundred dollars To see my favorite band Same four chords In every song They play on z100 So we can sing along Repeat words re-e-peat words Baby yeah yeah yeah When you get tired You can call my band My guyliner Doesn’t match my clothes All my shirts are band tees I cut them full of holes (oh man sooo punk rock) I wear all black Just like Johnny Cash (oh I’ve never heard of that band before) got pins on my backpack who the hell is black flag? (is that Pete Wentz’s new band?) Same four chords In every song They play on z100 So we can sing along Repeat words re-e-peat words Baby yeah yeah yeah When you get tired You can call my band It’s not about what you wear Or that you just don’t care Being jaded isn’t cool or attractive Just go listen to Radioactive It’s about your freedom of choice To use your god damn voice A sense of community And maintaining dignity Same four chords In every song They play on z100 So we can sing along Repeat words re-e-peat words Baby yeah yeah yeah When you get tired You can call my band
