It has never been my fault.

It was not my fault that you didn't come around, 

I was, but a child. 

It was not my fault that you drank everyday,

I was, but a child.

It was not my fault that you had unprotected sex,

I was but an egg, and a sperm.

It was not my fault that you didn't pay child support,

I just didn't eat sometimes.

It wasn't my fault that you were a good man, 

and a terrible father.

I've blamed myself since I was 6 years old, 

for all of these things.

It was not my fault that you died,

when I was 13, and I hadn't seen you since I was six.

It was your fault. 

It has never been mine.
