Ode to my father...

Ode to my father...
Well into madness with each setting sun you put your head down
It's all far away from you now
You are no longer here
You came to a mountain and dug a big hole like the one in your soul
Forever you replaced your heart with a sip
Till one day you said that your work here is done
You will never smell your sweet dream
A day too late and life time too short
A day had gone by when you asked if that on your dying day I would prose you a song
That day long past some fifteen years
Far away from me now
Your will for livin' long gone
Long before your time had come
The day of your dyin' I lit up a smoke
Looked to the sky
I simply smiled and wished you on your way
Said "I'll see you again soon, see you in your next life"
Walked on my way down the road
Thought to myself "your work here was done"
So here is your song
A day late and a life time too short
Your life was no waste
It was simply too short
You missed out on too much, too much to write
But the only thing goin' was your will to live
Faraway, away from me now
Your secrets will always be safe with me
The responsibility of the actions
Too much for you
Never able and never willing
The fight that you led was no fight at all
You are no longer here
Your ashes have fallen
Into the hole like the one in your soul
You sold your soul for a sip
And in the end it was all you had
Family surroundin'
Eyes all gleamed with tears
Your work here is done
Said "I'll see you again soon, see you in your next life"
As I lit up a smoke
And walked on down the road
