Father, where were you when I needed you the most?
Father, you vanished in thin air like a f**king ghost.
Father, how could you leave your own child alone here?
Father, turning out just like you is what I now fear.

So why did you come into my life time after time?
Telling me lies with every used up bullsh*t line.
I see who you now are and I don’t like it a bit.
Father, now I am so tired of your f**king bullsh*t.

Dad, you killed me when you lead me to the hanging tree.
Dad you killed me when you left me, when I cannot breathe.

Father, how could you leave your own child alone here?
Father, turning out just like you is what I now fear.

Father why did you hold the f**king hangman’s noose?
Rope burns on my neck proves that I survived, I broke loose.
You just left me to waste away, you just walked away.
Father, why you walk away? You took my life away!

So how did you like your short time in Cedar Rapids?
Did you miss your ex-wife, and your adopted kids?
So how can you live with yourself, when no one else will?
In your cold dead heart, know it’s my pride that you killed.

Dad, you killed me when you lead me to the hanging tree.

Father, now it’s Des Moines that you call your new home.
I’m here where you abandoned me, and left me for dead.
Here I’m cold blooded because you left me here all alone.
Thanks for leaving me, your son, for nothing more than dead.
