Bye Dad


I thought of you as my human sheild 

But then you left and I'm the one taking the bullets

Wondering if I ever crossed your mind

I'm hoping you're regretting everything you ever did

I know I'm not supposed to be in this world

The least you can do is take care of me 

But no, you were obssed with those drugs 

And eventually you were caught 

That's the moment you realized what you lost was what you wanted

Now that's your fault

After you leave you ain't coming back
