Daddy..

I wake up every morning
with this sad pale face
every time someone mentions
daddy my heart starts to race

your not there every morning
as i get ready for school
your not here anymore to
remind me of the rules

its just me, ma , and sis
alone in this big empty house
trying to figure out why the house lately
has been as quiet as a mouse

is it because you don't love mom anymore
that you chose to walk out that door?

20 years of both your lives
went down the drain
its so confusing now
i don't know who to blame

i miss you daddy
come back home
its not the way it use to be
we all feel so alone

i cried myself to sleep
for 2 weeks straight
and i hope you understand
cover-up makes me look so fake

blotchy skin and bloodshot eyes
don't look so good these days
you don't know how hard it was to
change all my damn ways

moms trying to cope with it herself
i hear her every night crying before bed
i am still trying to get her empty
bed image out my head

it was a king but now its only a twin
it holds one now that you left

and its been hard seeing everyone
with a smile and feeling so glad
when i am stuck alone in the playground
sitting alone with NO dad...
