Typhoon – Young Fathers Lyrics 6 years ago
I can't believe how far off everyone is on here with understanding these lyrics. They are laid right out there for you to understand.
As told by the father. It's about his young child dying from bone cancer. Who has the issue cured for a moment. However a plague begins to break out in various patients. As described by the news reports they worry that he might get the disease. Doctors try to treat the patients but it's only killing them quicker and ruining the patients hopes. In the future he is now all grown up child is afraid that if he has children that they will get the genetic illness too. They discover that the sons bone cancer has come back. He then knows that he is not healthy and doesn't know what to do. He ended up getting a woman pregnant after falling in love with her. However it's likely going to produce an offspring with the genetic disease as well. The son of the offspring calls his father up stating that he learned from his mistakes. Meaning that he has followed the very same path as the father. Their life choices and treatment didn't work out the ways they wanted them too. The father of the son tells him that he doesn't regret him even if he dies that day. They both understand that they will die some day soon. While wishing to follow each-other into death. This is then a repeatable pattern that happens down through generations.
