and after all these years
I just wanted to hold my son
and tell him
the world is his for the taking
and as I lay myself down
in the oceans
and the countless cities
watch the time go by
but you're both constantly on my mind
and I'm so sorry
that I couldn't be there
to watch you grow old
tell your mother
that I'm sorry
she won't be able to put me
in my
grave
and as I watch the bullet that's going to take my life
I'll say a fucking prayer for you my dear
I hope your life works out to the fullest
