[00:02.00] NOFX - My Orphan Year
[00:07.00]
[00:12.00]
[00:17.00]
[00:50.16] My father had dementia
[00:52.76] He lied in bed for months
[00:54.96] Once in a while he'd call me
[00:57.33] And ask me to fly down
[00:59.94] I told him that I'd love to
[01:02.25] But I had things to do
[01:04.38] And so he died without his son
[01:08.45] I heard about it drunk after a show
[01:13.05]
[01:13.95] My mother battled cancer
[01:16.37] For over seven years
[01:18.49] I nursed her and I held her
[01:20.92] When time was running out
[01:23.23] The night before she left me
[01:25.69] I drank scotch all night
[01:27.94] And thanked her for everything she'd done
[01:32.73] Raising me alone wasn't much fun
[01:36.66]
[01:37.51] Dad I can forgive you, but I'll never forget,
[01:42.10] Months I wouldn't see you and when I did
[01:46.66] You'd be out with your friends all night
[01:49.40] Alone and only nine
[01:51.63] I watched the outer limits
[01:54.13] And scared out of my mind
[01:56.34] I wonder if you felt the same
[01:58.88] The days before you died
[02:00.95] I wonder if you even knew
[02:03.68] Why I wouldn't come around
[02:05.78] I bet if you had been there,
[02:08.35] There wouldn't be this song
[02:10.97]
[02:18.51] 2006 goodbye parents
[02:26.28] For once I am sincere
[02:28.54] 2006 my orphan year
[02:33.71]
