Goodbye dear Dad.

So this is goodbye, I guess,
I just never knew till now,
How to say goodbye to you,
But I still have to somehow.
You've been a friend,
You've been a father,
And I love you even though,
I never thought I'd hate someone,
As much as I hate you.
It's getting dark inside,
And it's raining in my mind,
And I have to figure out how
I must leave it all behind.

But Daddy please,
It's hard to cry,
and it's hard to find the reason why,
the tears are building up my eye,
Goodbye dear Dad, goodbye.

When I was just a little girl,
you tore my heart to pieces,
and I've tried to mend my broken soul,
but you still make me restless.
And for a while I really thought,
that you were all I had,
and though the truth is hard to face,
You'll always be my dad.
I'm sure it's not as hard for you,
but for me it really has been.
And every time I look at you,
It's hard to say I'm leaving.
But you were not the person
That I really wished you'd be,
It's really hard to face the fact,
that you neglected me.

So this is goodbye, I guess,
I'm fighting not to cry,
but after all you broke my heart,
Goodbye dear Dad, goodbye.
