lyrics

Since when I lit the one first candle
and made you out of clay
I never thought you'd be so shallow
to turn the other way

No, there is no hope
I thought you and I agreed
you have to go as much as it hurts me

You know I understand your grievance, so
may you make sense of mine
this garden has no place for evil, son
I'm sad you crossed the line

Go, rise up and go
breaks my heart but I decree
reap what you sow and walk away from here

We're parting ways in this bittersweet fashion
but listen closely as I speak
so many torments you can't even fathom
will club your gams until you bleed

but I'll be there, as I always was
to lift you up when times are bleak
and in the end I'm proud of you because
no son of mine wears himself weak

May in your journey for the new
you reach ambitions that you seek
may you be free to make it through
find higher paths to tread indeed
may you love me as I love you
farewell, my boy, godspeed
