I once knew a girl
who's worries only wandered
through fields of flowers
who's life was a bubble of happiness
that was indestructible
who's hero; her father

You are my father, you sat next to
me in the field and kissed
my cheek, you pushed me on the
wooden swing set
but then you ran away

I once knew a girl
who's worries turned into boys
and she became more concerned...
or more so obsessed with how much she weighed.
You could see her happiness slipping away.

You are my father
I damage myself to impress you.
Don't you see? Do you care?
I am your slave, tell me what to do.
I'll do anything.
Your opinion is the only one that matters.

I know a girl. She's lost. No longer is she
the girl who skipped though
fields of flowers.
No longer is she hopeful.
No longer is she happy.

You are my father.
You left me.
You left my family.
You were my hero.

I used to dream of a love like
yours and moms.

You destroyed me from
the inside out.
You were a man, a husband, a girls hero -

but not any longer.
