Father

Always drinking, never thinking,
Always drinking, never thinking.

Your eyes are fixed, your not blinking.
I am scared, and I am thinking.
What did you do?
What were you thinking?

My tattered arm, the smoking car.
The rustic smell of a bar,
rises from your bleeding mouth.
A silent scream I can't let out.

So hear me now wherever you are, up in heaven or on a star
I don't know who you are.
Your not the father I once knew.
Your something evil, deceitful and new.

A liquid demon rushing through,
how am I a spawn of you?

Always drinking,
never thinking.
Finally my heart has stopped beating.
I am done thinking.

But for those who remain.
The burdened once who feel the pain.
With every bottle you've defeated,
is one more time my tales repeated.

Passing on a dying flame.
A little boy with no name.
