The Saddest Song Lyrics

Only two more days, until your birthday
Yesterday was mine
You'll be turning five
I know what it's like, growing up without your father in your life
So I pretend, I'm doing all I can
And I hope someday you'll find it in your heart

    This song is about vocalist/guitarist Kris Roe singing to his son or daughter about how he is never there for them due to touring and recording(life as a musician) and the fact that he is always gone and he explains that he knows what it is like to grow up with out a father. In my opinion this is the saddest song I have ever heard.

    This song is about Kris Roe and another person in the band feeling sorry for not being around as their daughters grow up.
