My Dad was diagnosed with schizophrenia when I was eight.
This song reminds me of how much it hurt, how I wanted him to stop fantasizing in his dream worlds, and come home from the hospital. The mental disease is degenerative, and it was bad enough that I could not have him give me away at my wedding, for fear of a unbalanced action happening.
Dad is still "with" us, but I am afraid he has been blissfully "drifting" in his own little world for years now. I don't think he can ever come home, even if he wanted to.
Sarah has an amazing way of finding common ground in life's pain, and putting it to music. So thank-you Sarah.
