Staring at the wall
I never thought this would be so hard
How could have I been so close and never known you?
I never knew, I never knew you at all!
You will always be my father but I hope you know
It's your fault and I'll never know what that means
You left a void that never could be replaced
I am dying inside but you will never see!
I always had hoped that you did not want it this way
But no matter how hard I try you always pushed away
You said you loved me but
How was I supposed to know
(How was I supposed to know)
When you left here
You left me here alone?
Do I ever even cross your mind
Just for second?
Do you know I'm alive?
You know I would let you in but you threw everything away
So tell me what did you get from all of these years of pain?
You have no clue what I've been through
But I guess that you wanted it that way!
How was I supposed to know
(How was I supposed to know)
When you left here
You left me here alone?
Do I ever even cross your mind
Just for second?
Do you know I'm alive?
If you would've been there
If you would've stuck around
If you would've been there when I needed you
You would've been
You would've been so proud!
How was I supposed to know
(How was I supposed to know)
When you left here
You left me here alone?
Do I ever even cross your mind
Just for second?
Do you know I'm alive?
