You were the one who I looked up to
The one who washed away all my fears
You were the one who helped me with what to do
But now it's changed over the years
When I was abused at that place
You wiped the tears from my face
I couldn't find the words to thank you
Now it seems I just don't want to
You helped me with my school work
Even though your explanations drove me beserk
I still told you I loved you
Now it's rare I ever do.
When I grew older, when I grew mature
You were still there to make sure
I could only be happy
But now it's like all you do is make me crappy
You held my hand throughout the way
Until I let go one day
You and I were always out and about
Now all I do is shut you out
When that one day came
You dapped your tears away
It's time to let your baby go
But you just want to hold me close
You tried your best, but didn't know what to do
When I told you off, when I said I didn't need you
You told me all you wanted was my happiness
Now all I want is your unawarness
When we finally lost contact
You grew lonely and sad
I was crowded with friends, never thought about you at all.
But one day I took a new fall
You gave out a long life just for me
When I grew older, you finally let me be
You thought about me everyday
Now I wish I had you back to say
When I got that letter
You weren't getting any better
When I went there to see
But your eyes wouldn't look at me
You sat there pale and cold
When I finally grew bold
You let me take your pulseless hand
Now I wish you could just understand..
When I got successfull and right
You were the one who helped me fight
When I hated you for my mistakes
But you would never get a break
You were the reason for my strong soul
When you helped me with my goal
Now all I can do,
Is wish I would've told you how much I loved you..
In memory of my father.
