martin luther king jr. day - kevin atwater lyrics

[justin]
dad is standing by the window sill
all is calm, all is still
as the ground turns to white
plasticware for my last meal at home
i must have been high ’cause the styrofoam
reminds me of the snow
mom says there’s things to talk about
that on monday night, dad is movin’ out
and they thought i should know

dad tells me things are still alright
he says, “i can’t love someone forever
i don’t know what i would do
i can’t love someone forever, except for you
forever’s too long except for you”

no class because a doctor came
i helped my dad unpack his things
and hang them on the wall
mom still givеs him a kiss goodbye
i don’t want her to see, so i rub my eyе
as a tear starts to fall
she drives me home, we pretend it’s all the same
and when i notice different pictures in the frames
she says, “i can’t love someone forever
i don’t know what i would do
i can’t love someone forever, except for you
forever’s too long except for you”

you know that i
drove back over to my dad’s house that night
and stole our family photos back
threw all the frames until they shattered and cracked
he came home and found me there
blood on my fingers and glass in my hair
i told him he didn’t have to see me anymore
’cause when life gets f*cked up, he’ll just run out the door

and he says, “i will love you forever
no matter what you do”
but when you live forever
who knows if that is true?
who knows if that is true?
who knows if that is true?
who knows if that is true?
who knows if that is true?
who knows what we will do?
