Dry As Dust (Dad) Songtext
You earned, you saved, and bills, got paid
On time. payments never missed
One night, they called, heart attack fall
Mom died. For twenty minutes
Response never found, Then room spun around
I will always love you
You can't believe it, you’re still just a kid
I will always love you
On time. payments never missed
One night, they called, heart attack fall
Mom died. For twenty minutes
Response never found, Then room spun around
I will always love you
You can't believe it, you’re still just a kid
I will always love you
Dishing the dirt as, dry as dust
To retell them when, your mom died
All your loved ones tried to, slow tears flood
For your tears she tried and, dried them
Yeah, she, she dried them
You cried, you paced, told her, she's great
Mother. Birthdays never missed
Right then, life's bell, struck then you fell
To earth. Reality sets in
Response never found, Then room spun around
I will always love you (Backing vocals reverb)
You can’t believe it, you're still just a kid
I will always love you (Backing vocals reverb)
Dishing the dirt as, dry as dust
To retell them when, your mom died
All your loved ones tried to, slow tears flood
For your tears she tried and, dried them
Dishing the dirt as, dry as dust
Yeah strangers question, your mom died
Deep breathing you tried to, slow tears flood
Without her to try and, dry them
Yeah, she, she dried them
I never meant to, fan this flame
I just wanted the grief, to be gone
So instead of, spreading blame
I guess I'm trying to move on
I never meant to, fan this flame
I just wanted the grief, to be gone
I guess I'm trying to move on
Response never found, then room spun around
I will always love you (Backing vocals reverb)
Dishing the dirt as, dry as dust
To retell them when, your mom died
All your loved ones tried to, slow tears flood
For your tears she tried and, dried them
Dishing the dirt as, dry as dust
Til strangers forget, your mom died
Memory they tried to, just shut up
Praying you won't try to, remind them
Yeah, you, you remind them
Yeah, she, she dried the
To retell them when, your mom died
All your loved ones tried to, slow tears flood
For your tears she tried and, dried them
Yeah, she, she dried them
You cried, you paced, told her, she's great
Mother. Birthdays never missed
Right then, life's bell, struck then you fell
To earth. Reality sets in
Response never found, Then room spun around
I will always love you (Backing vocals reverb)
You can’t believe it, you're still just a kid
I will always love you (Backing vocals reverb)
Dishing the dirt as, dry as dust
To retell them when, your mom died
All your loved ones tried to, slow tears flood
For your tears she tried and, dried them
Dishing the dirt as, dry as dust
Yeah strangers question, your mom died
Deep breathing you tried to, slow tears flood
Without her to try and, dry them
Yeah, she, she dried them
I never meant to, fan this flame
I just wanted the grief, to be gone
So instead of, spreading blame
I guess I'm trying to move on
I never meant to, fan this flame
I just wanted the grief, to be gone
I guess I'm trying to move on
Response never found, then room spun around
I will always love you (Backing vocals reverb)
Dishing the dirt as, dry as dust
To retell them when, your mom died
All your loved ones tried to, slow tears flood
For your tears she tried and, dried them
Dishing the dirt as, dry as dust
Til strangers forget, your mom died
Memory they tried to, just shut up
Praying you won't try to, remind them
Yeah, you, you remind them
Yeah, she, she dried the
