    That little pause between I didnt raise you and to give away you days is so interesting we know that Helen was rather distant for much of Alison"s childhood it almost seems like she is worried that she didnt raise alison at all, god this song is powerful.

    I’m playing Helen Bechdel in my college’s production of Fun Home. I’m falling in love with this character (and person) more and more everyday. Wish me luck

    Days and Days - Fun Home
    Welcome to our house on Maple Avenue
    See how we polish and we shine
    We rearrange and realign
    Everything is balanced and serene
    Like chaos never happens if it's never seen
    Don't you come back here
    I didn't raise you
    To give away your days
    Like me

    I saw this show live a little over a week ago. Bruce is really similar to my dad and this song really spoke to me. I felt at home, I never wanted the show to end. But it did, as everything does.

    Right before this is when the first tears started flowing I just sobbed till I got back to the hotel, I had to drink multiple bottles of water and take Advils..... I genuinely never sobbed that much. This is my new favorite musical for sure! I will never forget when I saw it live I can never forget that-

    Can someone explain why she thinks Alison is giving away her days? Is she giving away her days to her father? To Joan? I don't fully understand

    • @nathansachs5302
      @nathansachs5302 8 років тому +17

      My take, and I'm no expert, is that her mother is worried that Al's life will be destroyed. For her, Bruce's dishonesty, his secret life, destroyed her trust. Certainly, it made her feel like she couldn't satisfy him. She stayed with him only because of a sense of duty. As she states in the song, she gave her days away. She's also had to stand by and watch her husband succumb to his self loathing. It is only shortly after this song that he takes his life. So, her experience suggests Al's life will be destroyed, slowly, day by day until some traumatic end.

    • @liveadhdtv
      @liveadhdtv 8 років тому +1

      +Nathan Sachs well that's what I got too, I just don't know what she thinks will destroy alison's life. Homosexuality?

    • @nathansachs5302
      @nathansachs5302 8 років тому +12

      +liveadhdtv You know, Bruce did a lot of things he couldn't admit to, some of them illegal. He couldn't talk about his homosexuality. Not even when approached directly about it. He couldn't even talk about hers. He said some things in the car, but he was talking to himself, really. I believe Helen was worried Alison would, like her dad, be eaten up by shame.

    • @user-ot6ir9sl3e
      @user-ot6ir9sl3e 8 років тому +12

      I think it's because the enviroment of the town their family live is not friendly for homosexual people. And a twisted home of a dishonest husband and a wife who has wasted her life for duty of marriage may have bad influence on her daughter. She doesn't want her daughter to end up like her.

    • @ralujk
      @ralujk 8 років тому +21

      She says "Don't come back here. I didn't raise you to give your days away like me." I think she's talking about the town as a specific instance but more generally about suppressing herself and her feelings (telling her not to do that)

    These are great lyric videos! If you need more lyrics for videos, i think at least the ones on this website are pretty accurate: www.themusicallyrics.com/f/337-fun-home-the-musical-lyrics.html
    hope that helps :)

    Does anyone else wonder if her dad ever went after her brothers? I mean, she did have a brother or two, and I wouldn't put it above him. I'm just a little bit concerned for them.

      Sorry for the extremely late reply! From what I've found, there's nothing on whether or not Bruce went after his sons. I may have to reread the graphic novel just to make sure, but I don't think anything was said there either.

    • @neilagangitlog

      It wasn't mentioned in the graphic novel. But we never know
