Version 1 of the lyrics

1  You hadn't seen your father in such a long time   you hadn't seen your father in such a long time 1
1  He died in the arms of his lover how dare he   1
2  Your mother never left the house                                  he died in       the arms of his lover how dare he 2
2  She never married anyone else you took it upon yourself to console her   2
3                                           your mother never left the house 3
3  You reminded her so much of your father   3
4  So                               you were banished and you wonder why you're so hypersensitive   she never married anyone else you took it upon yourself to console her                     4
4  And why you can't trust anyone but us but then how can I begin   4
5  To forgive her so many years under bridges with dirty water   you reminded her so much of your father                     5
5  She was foolish and selfish and cowardly if you ask me   5
1  so you were banished and you wonder why you're so hypersensitive1
2      2
3  and why you can't trust anyone but us3
4      4
5  but then how can I begin to forgive her so many years under bridges with dirty water5
6      6
7  she was foolish and selfish and cowardly if you ask me7
      
  I don't know where to begin in all of my 50 odd years  I don't know where to begin in all of my 50 odd years
  I have been silently suffering and adapting perpetuating and enduring  I have been silently suffering and adapting perpetuating and enduring
6  Who are you younger generation to tell me   6
7  That I have unresolved problems not many examples of fruits   7
8  Of this type of excruciating labor   8
      
6  How can you just throw words around like grieve and heal and mourn   who are you younger generation to tell me that I have unresolved problems 6
8      8
9  not many examples of fruits of this type of excruciating labour9
10      10
11  how can you just throw words around like grieve and heal and mourn11
12      12
  I feel fine we may not have been born as awake as you were  I feel fine we may not have been born as awake as you were
9  It was much harder in those days we had paper routes uphill both ways   9
7  We went from school to a job to a wife to instant parenthood         it was much harder in those days we had paper routes uphill both ways 7
13      13
14  we went from school to a job to a wife to instant parenthood14
      
  I walked into his office I felt so self-conscious on the couch  I walked into his office I felt so self-conscious on the couch
10  He was sitting down across from me he was writing down   10
11  His hypothesis I don't know I've got a loving supportive wife   11
12  Who doesn't know how involved she should get   12
13  You say his interjecting was him just calling me on my shit?   13
      
8  Just the other day my sweet daughter I was driving past 203                               he was sitting down across from me he was writing down his hypothesis I don't know 8
14  I walked up the stairs in my mind's eye   14
15  I've got a loving supportive wife who doesn't know how involved she should get15
16      16
17  you say his interjecting was him just calling me on my shit?17
18      18
19  just the other day my sweet daughter I was driving past 203 I walked up the stairs in my mind's eye19
20      20
  I remember how they would creak loudly  I remember how they would creak loudly
15  She was only responsive with a drink he was only responsive by photo   15
21  she was only responsive with a drink he was only responsive by photo21
22      22
  I was only trying to be the best big brother I could  I was only trying to be the best big brother I could
      
9  I've walked sometimes confused sometimes ready to crack open wide   i've walked sometimes confused sometimes ready to crack open wide 9
16  Sometimes indignant sometimes raw can you imagine   16
10  I pay him 75 dollars an hour sometimes it feels like highway robbery                                       sometimes indignant sometimes raw                   10
17  And sometimes it's peanuts I wish it could last a couple more hours   17
11                                                                      can you imagine I pay him 75 dollars an hour sometimes 11
18  So here we both are battling similar demons not coincidentally   18
12  You seen getting beyond knowing it solely intellectually                                                          it feels like highway robbery 12
19  You're not relinquishing your majesty   19
13  You are wise you are warm you are courageous you are big   and sometimes it's peanuts                                                 13
  And I love you more now than I ever have in my whole life  
23  I wish it could last a couple more hours23
24      24
25  so here we both are battling similar demons (not coincidentally)25
26      26
27  you see in getting beyond knowing it solely intellectually you're not relinquishing your majestry27
28      28
29  you are wise you are warm you are courageous you are big29
30      30
31  and I love you more now than I ever have in my whole life31
