Daddy

Daddy I love you.
I really really do.

Daddy don't you love me?
Daddy don't you see?

All that you've done,
has destroyed me?

Daddy I love you.
Daddy I do.
Daddy you're so silly, how could I love you?

I guess that's a lie.
Just a little white one.

But you were never there!
To tell me not to lie!

I guess you couldn't teach me.
Or protect me from your lies.

You were always in prison.
You were always not there.

Daddy I missed you.
Daddy why weren't you there?

I was so little,
I didn't understand.

But I'm grown up now!
I think I'll understand.

Daddy you drink?
Daddy you smoke?

Daddy you don't like me?
Is that why you had the dope?

Daddy here's a picture,
that I drew for you.
In the picure there is me and you.

We're standing together,
holding hands forever.

Daddy where are you?
I need you more than ever.

Didn't mommy call you?
When I finally pulled the lever?

I finally cracked.
I jumped over the edge.

Daddy, I'm here!
In the hospital.

Mommy's in the corner,
crying her eyes out.

I took too many pills,
because I'm not your daughter.

I tried to kill myself
over the loss of a father.

How could you do this?
I was so young.

You were my hero.
The one who was supposed to give me love!

Daddy I'm here.
Way up in heaven.

Mommy I'm sorry
I left you all alone.

Without a daddy
I felt all alone.

Daddy I love you.
I really really do.

But how could I love you,
when I never hear from you?

You could have called.
Or at least send a message.

Oh, but you were in prison!
You didn't have a heart!

If you really did,
you would have sent a card.

Daddy I love you.
Daddy I do.

Daddy I'm sorry
That I had to do this to you.

I'm safe here now
I'm in a better place

I feel at home here
I feel at peace.
