Dad
Never felt so much sorrow
Before my heart became hollow
Said you'd always be here
Then one day you weren't there

Where did you go?
How come I didn't know?
You left me, you left us
You shattered my trust

It's been quite some years
I lost count through my tears
Everything you've ever told me
I had always believed

But it was never the truth
It turned out to be all lies
Now every time I think of you
A piece of my heart slowly dies

It was never about me
But always about you
I grew up without you
That's what I'll continue to do

Just remember one thing
It's not me who's to blame
I never wanted to be
Part of your selfish game
Dad, abandoned,  questions, regrets
