Daddy



daddy is that you calling my name
Are you there? Where have you gone?
Did you leave me to fight this world without you
Did I make you mad?
Does god hate me so much he’d take you away from me
Daddy are you there.? Come home to me
Please don’t leave me here
I need you.. help me survive this hurt
Without you I’m all alone in a world
That’ll defeat me and tear me down
They’ll take away everything you taught me
I’ll drown in this darkness without you here
Daddy where have you gone?
Come home to me I need you....
I’m sorry I let you down and now your gone
I didn’t even get to tell you I loved you
