MONSTERS

This is a cover of James Blunts Monsters. I didn't know this song existed until I listened to it one night about 2 months ago when I couldn't sleep one night. I sat by the fireplace in the dark and opened up YouTube and there it was. It hit me like a hammer. It brought me back to the last moments I spent with my dad. My wife and I traveled quickly to Louisiana, when we got word of his condition. He was in a coma and they said he was unresponsive. He had suffered a major stroke, we had been here before many times but they said this time he wouldn't recover, When I walked into the room, and said "Dad" he unexpectedly opened his eyes and turned towards me and started weeping. He was unable to speak at all because he was on a ventilator so he made no sound but he was visibly shaken that I was there, that someone, anyone was there. He was alone there and it was heartbreaking. I held his hand and asked him if he could squeeze it and to my amazement he could understand me and was able to manage a faint squeeze. finally his gaze changed and it was as if he was there but he wasn't. just staring blankly, still with us but like his awareness of us was gone. I did not have abundant words to say. they were few. I didn't know what to say at all but I knew I wouldn't see him again. He lived a very tough life, that's the best way I can describe it, always having great advice but never able to take that advice himself and use it. This song was very emotional to me when I heard it. The memory of dad that day came flooding back so I thought I would honor him by recording this song as sort of a tribute. He wasn't a perfect father but I know he loved me and I loved him as well. This song was a little hard to get through so forgive me for some of the missteps.
