I have no words to express how amazing this song is. Specifically, this rendition https://youtu.be/vAoADCSpD-8 having lost my father two years ago. there is not a single word in this song that doesn't resonate with me to the deepest part of me. probably more so than any other song i have ever heard. The only thing I can think of to say is that I am so thankful that I live at the same time that this song exists. And that I got to be part of a universe where it exists. It seems silly, but i've never thought that about any other song before. lyrics Ever since I heard the howlin' wind I didn't need to go where a bible went But then you know your gifts seemed heaven sent Just lead me to a choler, dad, that's the thing I don't know how you house the sin But you're free now I was never sure how much of you I could let in And I'm free now Won't you settle down baby here your love has been Heavenly father It's definitely lava Why you don't carry other names? Heard about a day where it dropped the know To go another day as we learn to close 'Cause I'm a known coward in a coward wind But you're free now You turn around now and you count to 10 To see you go now Well I know now honey that I can't pretend Heavenly father Is whose brought to his autumn And love is left in end I just been up here for god damn years Can you see now? Filling up hulls with god damn fears I am free now I know about it darlin', I've been standin' here Heavenly father Is all that he offers A safety in the end _________________ Wil's excellent description of me. wilsmith wrote: You're the Anti-Censorship+Topless Twitpic Parodying+Youth Group Video Directing guy that's a champion for the 1st amendment, Videogames as Art, and unrepentant file sharing...

I lost my father in 2018 to Cancer primarily, so it's been five years/ half a decade. Our relationship was loving but complicated at times. I feel the emotion in this one, even if I don't completely understand with the wordplay on first read and listen. Sometimes feelings just cut through. _________________ yup, that's my name.
