Don't Go

Stop fighting! That's what I scream from my bedroom

It seems like lately now this is all they do

Saying things to each other like shut up and I hate you

But now every word cuts me deep like knives that stab you

I bury my head under the covers cause I have to

Drown out just hearing my mother now tell my dad to

Get out the house I wonder when I'll get the bad news

I hate it when they scream loud and plus when they shout too

And I can't stand what I see and I really hate the sound too

As these tears run down my face until I can't do

Nothing but hope and pray and try to understand to

I guess I'm gonna have to wait do whatever I can do

I lie in bed and shake cause this ain't what I planned to

Go through plus I'm only six years old too

And I miss you so much and I just want to hold you

But on the day you walked out this is what I told you

Chorus

Oh I miss you so much mommy please don't go

Well you're gone but I see you on the weekends

But you and dad right now you really ain't speaking

And when he drops me off I can just feel the tension

Between you and him but it's something I don't mention

Sometimes I close my eyes and I just start pretending

That you're back together and I begin to imagine

You both pick me up and hold me tight and I'm laughing

But when I open them up I realized it never happened

And deep inside my own mind I just feel so sad and

Most of the times in the night I just wake up crying

Something ain't right cause at school now I'm fighting

I wish I was someone else and living some other life and

I'll never forget the day I think I was just nine when

Ya told me the news that you two was divorcing

And I'm a live with you now cause it's the courts orders and

I said this to my dad just with tears in my eyes that

Chorus

Oh I miss you so much daddy please don't go

It all changed that year in that one summer

A new family a stepfather and a little brother

New neighborhood new school and a new mother

But how am I gonna make it through now I gots to wonder

But out of nowhere you appeared right there

Placed your hands on my face and just brushed away the tears

Watched it all fade away you just chased away my fears

Showed me always for all days that you're always here

You told me no matter what my love will never disappear

And there's more than enough you demonstrated that you cared

Ya shed the blood of your son you didn't even spare

Gave him up for me even though it wasn't even fair

Ya hung him up on a tree where everybody could stare

He died so violently naked and just bloody there

It was all just for me nothing ever could just compare

I think back in the day that I used to just declare that...
