I know you're my father
And I should listen to you
But I just don't understand
Why you don't care
How could you leave
Just walk away as if you didn't have me
You pretend that you care
But I know that you don't
You never have
I cried and yelled
But nothing changed
I sobbed into the phone
Asking why you don't try
You don't act like my father
You act like a child
How could you just walk away
And pretend you didn't have a child
I feel like the one man who should be there
Has disappeared off the face of the earth
All little girls love spending time with daddy
Not me
Not with you
My father
What father?
