It Hurts Dad (Daughter Of An Alcoholic)

by Chelsea R.   Apr 7, 2005


It hurts my feelings dad
when you are never here
do you not love us daddy
would you rather go out and drink beer

it hurts my feelings dad
when you and mommy fight
it makes me cry a lot daddy
it's too loud to sleep at night

it hurt my feelings dad
at dinner when you threw the plate
but you wouldn't remember daddy
you stayed out to drink with your friends real late

it hurts my feelings dad
when you make mommy cry
she wants to leave you daddy
you make me sad but I still love you and can't say goodbye

it's hard for me dad
to pretend it's all ok
my friends think I have the perfect family
but they'll find out the truth someday

it hurts my feelings dad
that you don't remember anything I tell you
you're drunk all the time daddy
mom just doesn't know what else to do

it hurts my feelings dad
but mom says things will be good
it's hard to believe though daddy
because you don't care about your family like you should
