Daddy

Folder: 
old shit

You always know where it hurts

You attack like you don't care

You always know the words

Harshly stick me

Like needles in my spine



You bitch and complain

Like I'm a fucken mistake

Look at your own damn self

Your image isn't real anymore

It's only fake



You say you have control

Over the things I say and do

You treat me like I'm a dog

But you don't seem to care

As long as it doesn't affect you



Your rarely ever home

To be with your own family

Do you druggies mean more?

Do you not care about us anymore?

Watch the drugs and alcohol kill you



You're gonna die of a liver problem

Don't deny what I have to say

You know my words are all true

Yet you continue to party everyday

Drowning out your sorrows of life



My mother left you, didn't she?

Can you even tell me the reason why?

Is it because she couldn't handle you?

Is it because you drink too much?

Did she not like your icy cold touch?

Why'd mom leave me alone with you?

Did she not think about the shit I'd go through?

Is it because you cheated on her?

What went wrong between you two?



I've had enough of your shit

Your lies, your drinking, your beatings

It only pushes me closer to suicide

I know that you don't want that, daddy

Open your eyes a bit, take a look at me



You see the scars that line my arms?

They're on me 'cause of you

See the pain in my very eyes?

It's there 'cause of you

See the cracked smile on my face?

It's cracked 'cause of you



I'm a spitting image of you, daddy

The eyes, the hair, the way I act

Don't lie to me, this I know for a fact

Every little thing you did in the past

I did it just like you



Is this what you want me to be

The clone of someone who can't take life?

Is this what I'm supposed to be

A drone just searching for her fucken way?



Daddy, your a bastard, you don't care now

Daddy, your a prick, you don't care now

Daddy, I hate you, you don't care now

Daddy, you did this to me, you care now

Daddy... I love you, do you love me now..?
