Father

You brought me into this great unknown

A life of wonder with some room to grow

When you left, I faced this world alone

My cries for help met by a silent phone

I came, you went

What a fucking life well-spent

So go like before

It won't hurt me anymore

Don't call yourself a father because that's never what you've been

You're a lie, a fake, and a broken promise

The job of dad requires the responsibility of a man

And that's something you have none of

So don't call me when you need a hand

Because I'll remember when I didn't have one

Father, tell me where have you been?

Why did you throw me away? Father don't push me

Father don't push me away

When I am grown I know just what I'll do

I'll light the path and guide my childs' view

It's really not that hard, and not uncommon to

To be a man, to stick it through

To be a better fucking father than you

Father I tell you, father I tell you

Father I tell you

You're not my father, you never were

Blood only runs so deep

The death of you would be reality

'Cause in my mind you always were to me
