[phone rings and answering machine speaks]

You called me up and told me it's goodbye
That you'd be leaving tonight
You will love me forever but you're leaving for the darkside

Wait a hot minute, this is something new
I've never even known a world not containing you
Screaming to the empty heavens, "What am I supposed to do?!"

Jennifer called and said that our daddy died
I pressed play, an attempt to hide
Forever just got shorter
And now I'm feeling terrified

Wait a hot minute, this is something new
I've never even known a world not containing you
Screaming to the empty heavens, "What am I supposed to do?!"

I don’t prescribe to any religion
I don’t have much time for faith
No smiling mask to hide behind
Or any subterfuge for the pain

All I have is my heart
'Cause I don’t believe in my soul
And no scientific explanations for this massive fucking hole

Take a peek at the moon
I guess that’s how I’ll see ya
A snapshot of my impending doom
I wouldn’t want to be ya
Your pain is gone and I assume that you are free now
What a bittersweet gift, Dad
Life means more to me now
