Certain Father Lyrics by July Talk

Remember Never Before

2022

[Verse 1: Peter Dreimanis, Peter Dreimanis & Leah Fay]
I could see it in her face
A hit + run
Under an ocean sun, she thought I knew
He was not the only one
A purist's mind in judgement is a funny thing
Don't need to try
When the ice gets thin
I just sigh and hold it in
[Pre-Chorus: Peter Dreimanis & Leah Fay, Spencer Krug]
Said she wanted all of something (You can)
Overlooked, he feels forgotten (Hear it)
Up the river, screaming profane, he says
[Chorus: Peter Dreimanis, Spencer Krug, Leah Fay]
(Closer) Closer
(Certain) Certain
(Father) Father
(Feel the) Feel the
(Stillness) Stillness
(Dying) Dying
(River) River
(Current) Current
(Lying) Lying
(Scrеaming) Screaming
(Coward) Coward
It was a hit + run
Ha ha! Ha ha ha ha! Ha ha!
[Verse 2: Peter Dreimanis, Peter Dreimanis & Leah Fay]
Can't take his place
Hе's a setting sun
Under the gun, he'll try to prove
He is not the lonely one
Father shows his teeth when he's on the run
Don't need to lie
When you just pretend
It was never yer intent
[Pre-Chorus: Peter Dreimanis & Leah Fay, Spencer Krug]
Sinking deeper, manic creature, (You can)
A hollow trope, an empty preacher, (Hear it)
Squirming falling, you can hear it, whisper
[Chorus: Peter Dreimanis, Spencer Krug]
(Closer) Closer
(Certain) Certain
(Father) Father
(Feel the) Feel the
(Stillness) Stillness
(Dying) Dying
(River) River
(Current) Current
(Lying) Lying
(Screaming) Screaming
(Coward) Coward
It was a hit + run!
[Bridge: Peter Dreimanis, Spencer Krug, Leah Fay]
(As I try) It was a hit + run!
(As I try to compromise) As I try
(You can hear it) To compromise
(Closer, certain, father) Crying naked
(Closer) Closer
(Certain) Certain
(Father) Father
As I begin
(Closer) Closer
(Certain) Certain
(Father) Father
To let the water win
(Closer) Closer
(Certain) Certain
(Father) Father
Because I can't hold you in
Ha ha! Ha ha ha ha! Ha ha!
Ha ha! Ha ha ha ha! Ha ha!
[Outro: Peter Dreimanis]
He's a setting sun
And yer not the only one
