I waited up for you
every night
curled up in front of the tv
I knew you wouldn't be home until late
if you came home at all
so many nights
I was so scared
something would happen to you
so many morning I would wake
and you still weren't home
and if you were
you would yell
and tell me all the things ive done wrong
you would hurt me
and tell me I don't deserve to live
tell me it was all my fault...
I saw your blood shot eyes
And heard the rasp of your voice
smelled the alchohol on your breath
You think I didn't know
all I wanted was my daddy
to tuck me in at night
