Fellow Traveller from Someday by Fucked Up

Just over the next hill
We stopped and time stood still
You knelt down before me
Son come sit on my knee

Look after your mother
You left me there forever
Toy gun in my backpack
Just old enough to know my way back I know my way back

Two paths laid out before me
I walked where you might see me
My life, my family
No one’s gonna take it from me

She says I look for easy answers
For someone up there to take my hand
I say strong men can see what’s coming
When they come we won’t be running

Frozen time when you said goodbye
Tried to get back there my whole life
I’m still a boy
Waiting for his dad to come back

I learned things you would have taught me
I heard things you would have told me
Be strong for god and country
Our great home like it used to be

I try to see you in them
Their world is so different
I protect what you gave me
Get the fuck off my property off my property

So much I want to tell you
I stayed right where you left me
Would you say I’m proud of you
If you came back and let me show you

Frozen time when you said goodbye
Tried to get back there my whole life
I’m still a boy waiting for his dad to come back

I won’t live with regret
Under all the things you never said
I couldn’t be angry when my own daughter left me
Close the gates around us
Her choice won’t come between us
Once you leave you can’t never go back
