You were supposed to protect me Your little girl Your little angel Your only child You might've loved me At one time I think you ended up resenting me But that's fine Subjected to your selfish tirades Put through your gruesome facades Held up on a pedestal Only to be pushed down Your once endearing smile Now causes me to frown Everytime the bottle went up My heart sank down I begged you I pleaded you You weren't there Not even when I needed you Sure, you were physically there But mentally, you were so unaware Or maybe you were And just didn't care You got in your car Went out for smokes You were hazy And at this point, I went crazy Who were you to risk a life? Not your own But maybe somebody's wife? Somebody's husband? Somebody's kid? You don't even care about your own And I don't think you ever did
