What's this song about?
Generate meaning
1
Well my daddy he stood at the foot of the stairs
2
He was calling to me at the time
3
And I knew even then, I could die for the thoughts
4
That I kept in the back of my mind
5
But I dared not to speak
6
How I felt for my dad
7
Cause there were no words to define
8
The ball of confusion, of feelings and stuff
9
That I kept in the back of my mind
10
So I took to the highway
11
And I kept to myself
12
Just a lookin' and hopin' to find
13
Some solutions, some answers, someway to exist
14
All this stuff in the back of my mind
15
So I took me a job
16
And I took me a wife
17
And I took me a bottle of wine
18
And it did not take long, 'til all I had left
19
Was this junk in the back of my mind
20
Well the end of the tunnel
21
It never came up
22
'til I came to the end of the line
23
And I saw that the light I'd been hoping to see
24
Was just a spark in the back of my mind
25
And the cold wind that blew
26
Through the hole in my heart
27
Made a fire for the very first time
28
From some branches of trust
29
And a kindling of faith
30
And that spark in the back of my mind
31
Drivin' like rain, or a runaway train
32
Flyin' blind, shot from the dark in the back of my mind
