Where to begin?
My family and I don't talk too much about it
They just gave me his name and told me I'd have loved him
Unaware of the weight these eight letters instill in me
So carelessly
'Cause who'd have thought
That I'd grow up as angry as old Alvin?
A temper to match the stories that they told about him
His final words reduced to rambling
On coffee-stained diner napkins
If it ain't more than a name behind a different face
Then why can I feel my father's old man's mistake?
And no, I'll never make the choice that he made
I'll have you know
This name we share feels like a dead eye owe
And I blame him
But I guess he ain't 'round here to defend himself
Just some sad excuse for how my life's been playing out
A secondhand attempt, I'm sorry, there's no way in hell
But I still catch myself
Rambling in the dark to no one else
If it ain't more than a name behind a different face
Then why can I feel my father's old man's mistake?
And no, I'll never make the choice that he made
I'll have you know
This name we share feels like a dead eye owe
This name we share feels like a dead eye owe
And it's time to let it go
