You protected me when I was small,
You talked away my nightmares.
Stood up to the darkness,
And taught me I was safe there.
You were my hero and my best friend,
The man I trusted most.
Back when I was small,
Before you got so lost.
Now you won’t stand up for me.
Now I’m bigger than you.
Now you take orders from another,
I’m losing sight of you.  
You drink her venom freely,
Even when it spits on me.
You don’t care if it burns my skin,
As long as you dont see.
I miss that man,
I miss my hero.
It makes me sad,
It’s hard to swallow.
