lirik lagu native wildlife - korea
i heard her walk out the door – so i followed, calling her name
my mother doesn’t sleep these days
she’s been trying desperately to hold smoke that she still thinks is flame
but it’s drifting away
“you’ve got to be a man now,” was all he said to me that day
“care for your sister, and say your prayers before you sleep.”
then he packed his bags, and went out overseas
it wasn’t long at all ‘til i learned to drink
(after all,) i’m my father’s son, not the man he was
but she still hears his voice, each time i speak
he sacrificed for friends and family… but that ain’t me
all she remembers is the letter they sent
it said he’d been missing almost three whole weeks
she still swore he’d make it home okay
she still thinks he will. it’s this godd-mn disease
old man was out earning medals while my mother got sick at home
it almost broke her heart, you know — when he sent back pictures of those geisha girls
“you’ve got to be a man now,” was all he said to me that day
“care for your sister, and say your prayers before you sleep.”
then he packed his bags, and went out overseas
i’m my father’s son, not the man he was. (i’m not the man he was.)
(he’s safe now. and quiet, underground.)
take her down to his headstone. “your husband came home years ago
the war couldn’t take him, but the cancer did.” he ain’t never coming back
