A Father's lies

If I were to die today

Would you cry or would you pray

I waste away to the nothingness

Of your dismay

I lay at night

Wondering why

A father like you

Could make me cry

With each lie you told me

Each day

I cry at night

Wishing they'd go away

How can a father like you be ok

When your daughter committed suicide

Because of your ways

The ways you lied to her

And told her she was ok

Your daughter's heart died that day

The day you gave up and walked away

Will I forgive and forget

Or will my soul never be at rest

How can a man like you be called a man

When you can't even stand up and be a dad
