When I was a little girl,
I wanted to be the apple of your eye,
Wanted to be daddy’s pride and joy,
It’s really too bad,
That you couldn’t see any further,
Than yourself and your whiskey.
Every time you pick up that glass,
You washed her away, and your few memories of me,
You obviously didn’t give a damn,
My mom’s mental scars from the love never given,
Thrown away like trash.
You chipped away at her heart,
Her love for you slowly died,
Like the love never returned,
You were too plastered to give a s***,
Slowly sipping the drug of hell.
The night long fights,
The lies,
The deceit,
Wishing it could be forgotten,
Looking for love from everyone else,
To drunk to realize,
Shes waiting for you to get home,
Wondering if your still breathing,
When all along you were in someone elses arms.
Four AM I hear you stumble in,
I thought I could be enough to change you,
It took me so long to realize, there wasn’t any help for you,
You couldn’t be with just her,
One woman wasn’t enough to satisfy your needs.
How many broken hearts will need to be mended,
Because of your selfishness,
And your ignorance,
I know one,
And she can never be the same.
Broken down, degraded, made to feel undesirable,
The whiskey will slowly drown you,
And we will watch you die,
It won’t hurt my feelings,
Daddy this is your lullaby.
We won’t miss you,
And the few memories we share,
You have always been dead to me,
Hush daddy go to sleep,
The devil will take your cold heart to keep.
I may be your daughter,
But you will never really know who I am,
You will never understand why I don’t need you,
But you won’t ever hurt us,
Never again.
Not worthy of our love, or our anger,
My mother and I will spit on your grave,
You memories are like ash in the wind,
Go to hell daddy,
I never want to see you again.
