Why go back to Kanas when youv'e seen Oz


Daddy, I do not understand
Why you do this to me
You built me up
Then cut me down like a tree
You gave me love
And shelter too
But then what happened
Mommy passed
and you grew sour
Told me I wasn't even worth an hour

Daddy, I do not understand
how this came to be
is it old age?
or something deeper
You called me names
I could never repeat
You heard me cry
While they all sleep

Daddy, I do not understand
Why you enjoy hurting me
Why you enjoy seeing the
tears flowing down my porcelain skin
You see my scars
You know my pain too
But you're too self centered
To admit the truth

Daddy, I do not understand
My own creator who hates me
You take pride your other daughter
and son too
But yet its me who deals with the
violence and rage too

But daddy I finally understand
I'm saying goodbye
to you forever
Maybe I'll see you if you ever stop being bitter
daddy don't get me wrong
I loved you too But then I remebered
all the pain you put me through

God loves me
And mommy too
I know I'll be happier with them
then I ever was with you
I hope you hold on
to the memories
but chances are you wont
and you'll forget me too
