Hey Dad

I'm writing to you

Not to tell you, that I still hate you

Just to ask you how you feel

And how we fell apart how this fell apart

Are you happy out there in this great wide world?

Do you think about your sons?

Do you miss your little girl?

When you lay your head down how do you sleep at night?

Do you even wonder if we're all right?

We're alright

We're alright

It's been a long hard road without you by my side

Why weren't you there all the nights that we cried?

You broke my mother's heart, you broke your children for life

It's not OK but we're alright

I will remember the days you were a hero in my eyes

But those were just a long lost memory of mine

I spent so many years learning how to survive

Now I'm writing just to let you know

I'm still alive

The days I spent so cold, so hungry, were full of hate

I was so angry, the scars run deep inside this tattooed body

There's things I'll take to my grave,

but I'm OK, I'm OK

And sometimes I forgive, yeah

and this time I'll admit

That I miss you, I miss you...hey Dad
