Grandpa
Why did you leave me?
I just brought your groceries in
Too bad, you'll never eat them
Some people called you a drunk
And I spit in their faces
Seems they forgot about the war
And all those years as a cop
And when you fed their children
Because they couldn't afford to
Your shoes always were shiny
And you always had a shave
Yeah, it's no lie that you loved to drink
But I knew, when she passed away,
it was the only way you could cope
Those devils may talk about you
But they'll never be able to touch you
You were waiting for the dirt to cover your face
And, sadly, you got your wish
Know that I'll always love you
You can never leave my heart
I'm not gonna cry, you told me not to
So this is just a "see you later"
Because one day, when I'm an old man
I'll just look into the mirror... and see you
