DUANE (dad)


You were my dad that I once knew, But little do you know the pain you put me through. I've grown up and realized That your life is nothing but a thousand lies. You say that you love me more than I know But if that were true then why doesn't it show? You had me as a daughter to LOVE Did you forget I'm in your blood too?, But obviously that doesn't mean anything to you,!!!! I remember when I was the twinkle in ur eyes Then you left one day without saying goodbye.!!!! What was standing in the way Of u being able to stay? I'm your daughter, And you're supposed to be my father. Does that mean anything to you? But that you'll never see, And a father you will never be. If you could see the tears running down my facthe years have passed you can't replace. So, Duane I've given up on you, and this time I'll leave.. hope you drown in pain From this day forward I'll just call you duane My life
