[Chorus]
You were ruining my life - and now you're dead and gone.
You were a violent drunk - and now you're dead and gone.
The damage had been caused - and now you're dead and gone.
On the day of your funeral my life was reborn.
[Verse 1]
The first time I saw you, I could sense bad luck.
It was eleven a.m., and you were drinking on my couch,
And then you moved in like a torrential rain storm.
You had nowhere to go, but I knew where you were going.
[Verse 2]
You smiled when I was home, but you abused when I was gone.
You hit my younger brothers, and then you'd taunt my mom.
And when I would confront you, you'd say it was a lie.
Well I was at your funeral - happy that you had died.
Dead and gone [x8]
[Verse 3]
That night in the kitchen that I trashed my house,
There was a fist fight, and we threw you out.
And you were loaded with no place to go,
So you blacked out and passed out in the snow.
We got a phone call saying that you were dead.
All the shit you put me through raced through my head.
You died on a dirty motel floor,
Now you can't make me suffer anymore.
Do you see what I see?
You were a violent drunk!
Do you see what I see?
You were ruining my life!
Do you see what I see?
The damage you have caused!
On the day of your funeral,
My life was reborn!
