The Mountain Goats - Song for My Stepfather lyrics

You have got That look in your eye In the pinprick point where kindness goes to die I'll be six years old next year You erase me You'll be sorry You always feel sorry later on When you come around to say so I will be gone And in my place meet my letter perfect body double You erase me When i got ready To set out on my own Took up the reigns myself all through you Dug the spurs in clean down to the bone But all that comes later Now there's only you and me And the replica where my body used to be You can go ahead and hit him He feels no pain at all You erase me You erase me
