Jack's Song "Always

Jack's Song "Always."

I don't own the show/characters/song

What were you thinking
I got a right to ask
Is there a reason
Other than your past
A great pretender
Why was I the last to see
Through your SKIN
Is there a chance you'll ever change

Why couldn't I ask him that when I had a chance? I might have been young when he died, but I wasn't stupid. I knew his leaving all the time was upsetting mom and they'd fight and scream for hours about it. So why didn't I go up to him that day and ask him to stay and play a game or two with me? He won't of listened, so much like Fiona a hard headed pain in the ass who must prove their always right. But he just had to realize his actions could and did kill us all in somway.

It's always the same
You're always to blame
Is there any way around this
I can't see
You walked out on her
You planned to be free
I'm trying not to point the finger
But it's killing me

I'm sick of Fi's questions about our dad. What was he like when he received good news? How often did he cry? I could go on and on forever and a day. It's during the questions I started to think I hate him. After all he put himself and needs first not thinking of his son and daughter who would die just to be held in his arms one more time. I mean what was more important then his own family?

What were you thinking
Were you thinking of me
Did you see what they wrote
On the family tree
I know it's over
All in the past
I need to forgive you?
If I'm to last - will I ever change

Was I such a terrible son that my dad would always run off in all directions to escape from me. I know that's not true, but sometimes when I was a young boy asking mom where daddy was, and only being told he was out, was very painful for me. All I wanted was a bedtime story with a happy ending to be told every night. Or was I wishing for too much?

Take these pieces
Thrown away
Put them together from
Night 'n' day
Washed by the sun
Dried by the rain
To be my father
In the fatherless days

I'll always love him, no doubt about that. Just my love for him is very different then moms and Fi's. He was mom's true love the kind of love very few get to fell. To Fiona he was a superhero nothing was wrong with him. I wished I had that kind of love in my heart but I'll never completely forget lying in bed fighting the sand man off to feel him kiss my forehead. He left me, how can I just pretend that didn't happen?
