Dry As Dust (Dad) Lyrics

You earned, you saved, and bills, got paid
On time. payments never missed
One night, they called, heart attack fall
Mom died. For twenty minutes

Response never found, Then room spun around
I will always love you
You can't believe it, you’re still just a kid
I will always love you

Dishing the dirt as, dry as dust
To retell them when, your mom died
All your loved ones tried to, slow tears flood
For your tears she tried and, dried them
Yeah, she, she dried them

You cried, you paced, told her, she's great
Mother. Birthdays never missed
Right then, life's bell, struck then you fell
To earth. Reality sets in

Response never found, Then room spun around
I will always love you (Backing vocals reverb)
You can’t believe it, you're still just a kid
I will always love you (Backing vocals reverb)

Dishing the dirt as, dry as dust
To retell them when, your mom died
All your loved ones tried to, slow tears flood
For your tears she tried and, dried them

Dishing the dirt as, dry as dust
Yeah strangers question, your mom died
Deep breathing you tried to, slow tears flood
Without her to try and, dry them
Yeah, she, she dried them

I never meant to, fan this flame
I just wanted the grief, to be gone
So instead of, spreading blame
I guess I'm trying to move on

I never meant to, fan this flame
I just wanted the grief, to be gone
I guess I'm trying to move on

Response never found, then room spun around
I will always love you (Backing vocals reverb)

Dishing the dirt as, dry as dust
To retell them when, your mom died
All your loved ones tried to, slow tears flood
For your tears she tried and, dried them

Dishing the dirt as, dry as dust
Til strangers forget, your mom died
Memory they tried to, just shut up
Praying you won't try to, remind them
Yeah, you, you remind them

Yeah, she, she dried the
