THE GREAT LET DOWN

(son)
You took on too much
And you were not
Ready or equipped
When you were done with us
We were rough edged
And jagged
And the filing
And the sanding
Were left to someone else
I was shown how to
Grow an insight
From scratch

(and)
(Who could ever feel it coming?)
(I can feel it coming!)
The great let down
(Who could ever see the reasons?)
(I can see the reason!)
Every attempt a challenge
Every love a fight
(Who could ever be surprised that…)
(It’s no surprise that…)
The unfinished job
Dragged pain
And confusion along

(father)
You took on too much
And I was left
Thick and unprepared
When I let my guard down
I was told to sit
And shut up
And the filing
And the sanding
Were done by someone else
I was able to
Grow the insight
That you miss
