about

Daughter’s parents apologise to her from the afterlife for destroying the planet, each other and their family.

lyrics

F: When we destroyed the planet that you lived on
We were only trying to do our best
M: When we went at each other with the napalm
We were only trying to do our best
F: And all along you were the one who suffered
But you know we never even guessed
M: While we made war with psychic biohazard
We were only trying to do our best
Just our best

F: When you came we were blessed
It’s true
M: All our love we confessed
To you
F: But the years came to test
Us too
M: And the hate coalesced
And grew

M: So we gave our all
But now you leave
F: And was our family
Just make-believe
M: We hope the stars can take
Your pain away
F: And that you think about
Your folks some day

M: When I nailed your jacket to the table
F: When I told you that your hair looked awful
M: That time I put the dog shit in your bagel
F: When I realised you were completely evil
