[00:22.935]I overheard someone talking, they said that
[00:28.582]you took your brothers name
[00:34.518]after he died and you left yours
[00:41.585]in Vietnam
[00:43.849]
[00:46.116]Thanks for the eggs that you cooked when I was sick
[00:52.336]Think i can say that much
[00:58.553]Hey grandpa you look good in that suit
[01:03.073]i finished high school, can you believe it?
[01:07.881]
[01:10.430]so I walked in to your room
[01:16.380]the sunlight reflected off your sheets
[01:22.306]No one looks you in the eyes
[01:26.551]as you struggled to make a sound
[01:31.072]
[02:16.328]I can’t quite express all the things i regret,
[02:21.992]my sister cried when i got her friends sent home
[02:26.790]I held her in my arms as we got scolded in the hall
[02:31.599]by my stepmom
[02:34.146]but it was too late
[02:36.693]
[02:57.907]I blamed my mom for the things my family said
[03:02.994]it wasn’t her fault but she was the only one around
[03:08.377]I’ve talked so much shit about the people i love most
[03:12.905]so what does that say about me?
[03:18.277]
[03:28.743]**** this shit! I deserve this
[03:38.351]
[03:49.668]At cô Ly’s wedding, she made sure to have a speech telling
[03:52.491]how sad she was that you already died
[03:54.760]and everyone was crying as she danced with her brother
[03:57.593]just like you and grandma
[04:00.140]
[04:00.140]and I could hear my dad as your first family planned your funeral
[04:05.795]and through the door he screamed
[04:08.344]“**** him! He’s not done anything for us!”
[04:10.893]
[04:11.178]And so, how could I come?
[04:14.860]Do you know? what you left me with?
[04:16.845]if I came to see you i’d be betray my dad,
[04:19.390]There’s just no easy answer
[04:22.211]
[04:22.776]you left my dad when he was just a kid and
[04:25.889]your second marriage it was just so perfect
[04:28.434]and you said it was ok if I did anything at all
[04:30.701]just finish college first alright
[04:37.492]
[04:44.850]**** this shit, should I have called more?
[04:53.943]
[05:05.546]Don’t hold me back, I feel so guilty but all i want to say is just,
[05:12.053]**** you, you just don’t, how complicated it be to just come and visit
[05:17.136]
[05:18.269]but I would call, if I could, and tell you my life didn’t end up quite the way I wished
[05:24.205]and I’ve got so many questions that I just didn’t care about when i had the chance
[05:29.291]
[05:29.571]and just know, that all this time, I hear your words and I try to let go
[05:34.952]
[05:35.234]But I
[05:36.654]Just can’t
[05:38.066]Forget it
[05:39.196]
[05:40.323]I can’t forget it
[05:43.159]
[05:46.553]I can’t forget it
[05:49.947]
[05:53.059]You laid in bed, ****ing god the sunlight’s so bright
[05:59.276]And I could see every contour of your bones
[06:04.340]
[06:04.624]And your hair was gone, but I remember,
[06:10.577]and your voice was gone, But I remember,
[06:15.656]
[06:15.937]and you said, “hey why didn’t you come more?”
[06:21.329]
[06:21.613]Now I can’t believe you’re gone
