the wrong match

did you ever tend to us when we cried because you cared, or because you couldn't hear the tv?
did you punish os for drinking your last beer because of our health, or did you just want the last one?
did you make us go to bed because you wanted us to go to school in the morning, or because you were cheating on dad?
did you have us play inside because of the rain, or cause you didnt want us to see you leave for the strip bar?
did you take us to the park to play, or because you had to do a drug deal behingd the swing set?
did you try to hind your true identity to protect us, or did you know you were hurting us all along?
