Not Enough

by Leah.A.   Aug 4, 2004


I always try to help you out
And try to give you that helping hand
When you need it most
But somehow it just never seems to be enough
Everything I do for you
Is considered wrong in your eyes
A mistake in some way
So making me feel stupid
Is what I always expect in return
I try to impress you
With all my accomplishments
But I guess that just isn't enough as well
Because I'm not worth any of your time
Only your own time is worthy
Should be considered worthy by other people
Like myself
And if its not
I'm the one at fault
Then again its always my fault
I'm always the one that should be blamed
Because there's nothing else better to do right?
Well here's some words of advice
Grow up
And take the blame for your mistakes for once
Stop putting it on me
Just because you're too ashamed to put on yourself
It doesn't mean you have to make me look stupid
What kind of a father are you
To treat your own daughter like crap
You're suppose to be lifting me up when I'm down
Not making me feel even more like sh*t
After all
Having a daughter who's
Depressed
Suicidal
And doesn't want to have anything to do with life
Is not a big deal right?
But that's probably my fault too
So you know what
I'll break it down for you nice and simple
If you realize that there's no one there one day
To point your problems at
It just comes to show…
[[You weren't worth any of my time too…
Not even worth enough for me to stay alive.]]
