You left me reeling In the empty feeling Of a mothers love Supposed to be felt from far above
Yet you didn’t die You didn’t fly You left me and my sister Struggling to get by
So when I wake up in the middle of the night Wanting to be comforted by my mother Wanting to be able to see my brother I have to tell myself that you are gone
Though dad is great He is not enough To fill that empty feeling You left in my heart
You called me, fake not by mistake you hollowed out my heart and filled it with hate. Therefore, I will not forgive you because I cannot forgive myself for the empty feeling, you carved out in my mouth.
I only miss you on the sad days The bad days The ****** days When the sun doesn't shine When the waves crash on the shoreline
But never on the days when I have a home-cooked meal Or score a good deal Hang out with my friends Or when the river crosses the bend When the sun hits my face When I win a good race... so maybe if I was never sad I wouldn't miss you at all.
