I was having major father issues.
I write this with tears in my eyes
because I feel like you've left me behind
I've never met a man so blind
that he couldn't see the pain in his child's life
I long for a relationship with a dad who cares
I wish that my dad would put me before anyone else
I've tried discussing the issue
but what do I hear
you said "This is all your fault
for not coming near!"
I wish that I could make you fathom
how much my heart is breaking
from top to bottom
I feel like when I talk, you don't listen
so why should I waste my time
making this link glisten
I want you to know how I feel
so I'm telling you the only way I know how
Dad, you used to be my hero
but I don't even know who you are now
please understand that I love you
don't ever consider it different
I just want you to be here
with more than something I can tear
I'll give you time to think this over
so you go on with your life
I'll go on my own
