Fat Bottomed Boys - Father Do You Hear Me? Lyrics

Another night falls
Just like the night from which you never woke
Now my heartbeat stalls
Can't set aside those final words you spoke

Father, do you hear me?
The hammer fell by my own fated hand
Father, do you hear me?
That grievous night I'll never understand

The tolling of bells
With every ring, the wheels of progress turn
In my private hell
See everything, through windows watch it burn

Father, do you see me?
I kneel before you cloaked in leaden sorrow
Father, do you see me?
That I may play the game again tomorrow

A plea for sweet release
The battle brought you peace
But will the raging tempest ever cease?

Father, can you help me?
Is this a doom or glory I've created?
Father, can you help me?
Give me the strength to see it elevated
With you inside my heart I feel elated
Could I have saved you, had I only waited?

Father... Father...
