“I feel a pain behind my eyes
Thinking about our broken ties
I didn’t realise how far I was from you
I hope you never feel as sorry as I do
I hovered high above my world
I didn’t treasure my own girl
I should have been a father
I wasn’t any good to you
I hope you never feel as useless as I do
I extinguish fire with legal grace
At night I pray to save this holy face
I live for liturgy and the motions of the mass
I am sleepwalking to heaven via a first-class funeral”
