It's Been a Bad Few Weeks lyrics

He heard it loud and clear the silence deafened him All the lights were on but no one else was in The candles flickered out, the door slammed in the wind He didn't notice He was all alone in the kitchen with his note It said: Dad, I'm leaving home and I'm not coming back for good This is all you've got so run with it and take it to your grave It's been a bad few weeks I'm sick, I'm sick and tired I'm feeling old and past my prime But I know we've still got time Darling where have you gone? You've got me worried sick I've rang your friends and searched the woods I can't fucking deal with this I'm an old and dying man and you've got me on the ropes Now I'm helpless I've searched your note for any clues, using codes and lemon juice I haven't slept for days, brushed my teeth or worn my shoes I'm starting to go mad, I'm hallucinating too Grandma is coming over just to see what she can do My son, she's not coming back I'm sorry, you've not come to terms with that My son, we buried her last year I'm sorry, that you needed her back here
