The Day I Would Bury You Lyrics
I will say I don’t need you to know me
I don’t want your help, your name, your wealth
You have plenty of wine
You can offer me a drink
I’ll say i’m wise to you
I know what you must think of me here
Then we’ll barely speak
I was young then and full of cheek
I wanted to tell you again and again
How much I blame you
How hard this has been
I always dreamed of the day I would bury you
I never thought on the day i’d stop hating you
On an alter you look smaller
I am musing, coming closer
Now my shadow over you
I swore i’d stay afraid of you
But you aren’t the same
And I am not your enemy
Though I lay the band you gave to me
Here as I vowed I would today
I don’t want your help, your name, your wealth
You have plenty of wine
You can offer me a drink
I’ll say i’m wise to you
I know what you must think of me here
Then we’ll barely speak
I was young then and full of cheek
How much I blame you
How hard this has been
I always dreamed of the day I would bury you
I never thought on the day i’d stop hating you
I am musing, coming closer
I swore i’d stay afraid of you
But you aren’t the same
Though I lay the band you gave to me
Here as I vowed I would today

about a daughter who hated her father. But she only hated him when he was alive just to lash out at him because he hurted her in one way or another. But when he died, there wasn't the oppertunity to forgive him anymore, one thing she never realised when he was still alive. And now she doesn't hate him anymore just because he is dead and she feels sad and regrets she didn't make up with him when he tried to. She realises that all in all he was only human.
