    Lyrics:
    I drove up the hill just to say goodbye,
    But all I found was a For Sale sign.
    Put my hand on the gate and there’s tears in my eyes,
    And all that’s been left since the minute you died,
    Are the chandeliers in the trees and ceramic bees,
    But now they’re just covered in leaves.
    My hands are shaking as I type in the code.
    The gate doesn’t open, just a voice that says, “no”.
    But I know inside there’s a piece of your soul,
    That they’re painting over and everything else will be sold.
    And the piano that played on its own is not playing no more.
    I wish that you had called somebody.
    And if I wasn’t there, I’m sorry.
    You made me believe you were strong.
    I wish you had called me and told me that something was wrong.
    So goodbye to my best friend ever.
    I can’t believe you’re gone forever.
    I came up to find you today,
    Cause I finally found all the words that I needed to say.
    But a dark thought got there first.
    They buried your ashes in a Prozac pill,
    And all the vultures came to chew on your will.
    I hate that you’re gone and the questions you leave,
    And it’s sad that your daughter’s not talking to me.
    Well, I can’t draw a heart so I drew you a star on the Hollywood Boulevard.
    I wish that you had called somebody.
    And if I wasn’t there, I’m sorry.
    You made me believe you were strong.
    I wish you had called me and told me that something was wrong.
    So goodbye to my best friend ever.
    I can’t believe you’re gone forever.
    I came up to find you today,
    Cause I finally found all the words that I needed to say.
    But a dark thought got there first.
    I drove up the hill just to say goodbye,
    But all I found was a For Sale sign.
    Put my hand on the gate and there’s tears in my eyes,
    And all that’s been left since the minute you died,
    Are the chandeliers in the trees and ceramic bees,
    But now they’re just covered in leaves.

    As a teenager lucky enough to have grown up in the 70's, loving lyrics and an eclectic taste in music, I was an ardent David Bowie fan. The lyrics in all of these songs are not only intelligently put together with wonderful melodies, they are evocative and emotive. Truly wonderful, thank you for bringing me back to this kind of music.

    You are such a blessing and have such an incredible talent to move people. I've been unfortunate enough to lose three parents and a good friend to those dark thoughts and that haunts me every day at 20 years old. Grieving is its own process, but as soon as things get easier there's just something new to grieve about. This is exactly what I needed to hear on probably one of my roughest days since my dad's in July. Thank you a ton. This is beautifully written.

    James, this hit me really hard. My dad had cancer and fought it for ten years. He wasn't present when i grew up and we found a relation just a couple of years before he passed. Our contact was sporadic and hard, and one time he called to ask to borrow a few dollars and i couldn't because i had none but portrayed myself as having a stable life.
    So i said no and we had a fight. A few weeks later he ended up in a hospital on his death bed, he has starved himself to death. And i can't forgive myself for that... The fight we had pierced his heart so badly that he finally gave up and let the cancer take him.
    I have trouble living with it.

      Parents are not supposed to borrow money from their children. Fathers who choose to not be involved in the lives of the children they create, who lent no support in their youth, especially have no right to ask for money or anything else from their children.
      Don’t feel bad about such a selfish person. He was fortunate to know you at all, having missed the endless love you had to give when you were a child.
      I’m sorry you are grieving.It’s a process all children must eventually experience, but please don’t waste any more of your energy than you have to on him. You deserve to surround yourself with supportive, loving, and kind people. They will enrich your life, just as you enrich theirs. Kind regards.❤
