about

This track is a one sided conversation that a son is having with his soon to be deceased father. He just needs an answer, to the simple question "Why" ?

lyrics

HEY DAD

Hey Dad were you thinking of me, when you bought that strap
Or was it simply, on a whim
Hey Dad was it pleasure you’d feel, when you saw the welts
That you left, on my skin

Hey Dad were you thinkin' of me, when your hands were around my throat
Something that still seems surreal
Hey Dad, won’t you stay anyway, I won’t cry anymore
I guess your feelin' kind of ill

HEY DAD, why’d you have to treat me, this way
HEY DAD, I really need to know


Hey Dad, you know you’re leaving here soon
But I’ll stay here, by your side
Hey Dad, I’m just sorry not mad, cause of the pain you held, inside
Hey Dad, that look on your face, 
It reminds me, way back of me
Hey Dad, I know you feel out of place
You’re just a little boy, like me

HEY DAD, why’d you have to treat me, this way
HEY DAD, I really need to know
