This is just a song I wrote in like five minutes. Criticism Appreciated. :D





I am trying to get away from the strength of your arms
But all it does it cause much more harm
I’m lying down covered in these tears
But I know I have to stay here

You’ll leaving in a while anyway
But I know it will happen again like yesterday
I hope you’ll go to the prisons and rot
But right now I wish you well is all I got


Oh father, just give me the phone
Oh father, just leave me alone
Oh father, I hope you leave
Oh father, get your wrists off of me
Oh father, just save yourself
Oh father, stop trying to control everyone else
Oh father, if only mother knew
Oh father, how could you?


13 years old, and you finally walked out the door
Done with the hurt, done with the war
You faked a smile to everyone around
But no one knew, you threw me to the ground
I didn’t see disappointment in your eyes
I didn’t even see you cry
Oh when was the last time you called?
Or do you not even care at all?


Oh father, No hurt ever shown
Oh father, You left your child all alone
Oh father, Did you even care about me?
Oh father, Or was it just all make believe?
Oh father, You just care about yourself
Oh father, But your covered in lies to everyone else
Oh father, well time just flew
Oh father, how could you?

If time could only heal
The wounds I still feel
Left with these mental bruises
You don’t know what you’re losing



Oh father, just give me the phone
Oh father, just leave me alone
Oh father, I hope you leave
Oh father, get your wrists off of me
Oh father, just save yourself
Oh father, stop trying to control everyone else
Oh father, if only mother knew
Oh father, how could you?

Oh father, No hurt ever shown
Oh father, You left your child all alone
Oh father, Did you even care about me?
Oh father, Or was it just all make believe?
Oh father, You just care about yourself
Oh father, But your covered in lies to everyone else
Oh father, well time just flew
Oh father, how could you?
