I can remember it like yesterday, waking up in the middle of the night
I was on 7 years old, and all I could hear was the loudness of the fight
I look outside my door to see his hands clamped around her throat
For the first moment I wish he would have left just get up and grap his coat
This was when I knew nothing was right, and nothing would ever be the same
For a couple of months I thought I was the one to blame
But it was the alcohol that had a hold and wouldnt let go
You didnt see the problems, because this is all you know
Growing up in a home where alcohol solved the problem, and beatings were okay
Oh how I wish you could change, everyday I prey
Youll walk in my life as quickly as you walk out
I thought this time you would really be there, even though I had a doubt
Well of course I was wrong once again always believing what you say
I should have known better I should have known you wouldnt change you way.
I know you love me with all your heart, and I will forever love you too
But I dont think you have any clue what you have put me through
All this pain isnt so easy to forget
Every time I cried, and for my whole life Ive been upset
Maybe someday youll be back, but I wont let you in
Ill try to keep you off my mind, your not getting under my skin
Dont get me wrong you know I Love you and that will always stay the same
But I cant keep living like this; youre the only one to blame
And now you have another daughter, shes barely even one
I prey that you will always be there for her, her life has only begun
Dont let her grow up without a father feeling confused
Dont let her heart forever felling bruised
I know how it feels to not have you there
I felt unloved my whole life, it just wasnt fair
Everyday I wake up in despair
Always in anger I just dont care
