I can't fight anymore,
I've given all I can give.
You've been gone for so long,
and all I have are memories.
Why do I try?
I know I'm gonna fall down.
I could scream in your face,
but you would never hear me.
Your blank expression
keeps me guessing.
I would give up my life
to hear you say "I love you"
Your silence hurts more
than your fists ever could.
I'm standing here dying, daddy.
Where have you gone?
It hurts to know
you will never support me.
No matter what I do,
I am never good enough for you.
I just want you to say
"Hey, you did great!"
and love me for me,
but I'd be hoping for pigs to fly.
I'm never going to live up to
your high expectations.
Maybe you'd miss me
if I was dead.
not a good night. i think too much.
