Daddy
There's one thing that will never change
No mater how hard you try
You're still always gonna have your past
There's never a goodbye
The haunting memories follow you
You rethink them back a fourth
You know that they wil always be there
& that's what makes it worse
There aint no turning back now
Their aint no turning back that night
The memories will always want you
No matter how hard you try
The endless fighting
Voices were screaming
Tears were streaming
I couldn't forget it if I tried
Cause there aint no turning back now
Their aint no way to forget
That night with you two screaming
Forever planeted in my head
I didn't know what was happening
I didn't know how it would end
All I knew was I was scared to death
& I didn't want this again
Its been 9 years now
But I won't forget that fight
A plate of food left your hand
& went off & set flight
It slammed the wall to the left of me
the food landed infront of me i realized
& you never tried to stop it
permanently stuck in my eyes
Its been 9 years now
But I swear I won't forget
That night where you went crazy&
left us all for dead
But it wasn't really just a night
But a childhood I lost
You being an alcoholic
This is what it cost
I don't remember hanging with daddy
I don't remember talking to you
All I remember is bringing you coffee
& plates of your food
I was only 5 years old
& this is what's in my memory
Daddys up in bed
I wonder if he'll come see me
But I knew even then
If you came down the stairs
That objects would go flying
Or end up with broken chairs
You don't understand the damage you caused
You think an apology could take it all back
You made me scared of living
& left me with a permant crack
There aint no stitches to heal me
The damage has been complete
You weren't ever physical
But your words left me beat
The words already struck me
The ones you cant regret
Its too late to say you're sorry
Cause I will never forget
You left me here with nothing
But a memory set in stone
I have to make life my own now
I'm walking on my own
You left me with broken wings
& I'm horrified I'll fall
But you won't ever understand
How you caused it all.
i know life will still go on
More will happen too
But I won't forget the night. &
I blame it all on you.
