My fault
written by lost_cause05:48 PM 9/12/04It was all my fault
At least in my mind
He wouldn't hit me if I was good
It I behaved it would all be fine
I shouldn't have been so bad
I should have been perfect
Then he would be proud of me
I wish I could forget
I never seemed to get it right
As much as I would try
"Daddy stop, it hurts so bad!"
"Shut up bitch, don't cry!"
After I'd been punished
And got what I deserved
He would leave me drowning
In my own tears and hurt
I never understood why
Mommy never helped me
She didn't know how bad it was
She refused to see
When I got home from school
We had our own routine
Mommy left to go to work
Daddy cooked for me
And just because I couldn't eat
As much as he'd give me
I would have to sit and try
So Daddy wouldn't have to scream
But I couldn't get out of it
He'd know how bad I was
And when he yelled and hit me
I knew it was because
I was a bad girl
Never listening to him
The bruises were to teach me
And give him his next win
When I was crying, cold and curld up
It was over for that night
Daddy tucked me in and said
"Learn to be good, alright?"
After I had been thrown
Against the wall across the room
He felt bad for my scars
And sent me to bed real soon
Mommy's car pulled in at two
I'd waited up for her kiss
But Daddy grabbed her by the hair
"So your finally home, Bitch!"
I was scared and listened close
I dared not leave my bead
Mommy screamed and Daddy cursed
"Stupid bitch! You should be dead!
Your stupid daughter doesn't listen!
Whe the fuck didn't you get rid of her?
Maybe if I teach her well
She'll shape up and be better!"
Daddy never hit Mommy
But this time he was drunk
The nieghbors got me out my window
But Mommy was out of luck
Daddy had hit her
Kicked her all around
The police came and saved Mommy
I watched them help her off the ground
She swore she'd never leave
That she would be there for me
That Daddy was never coming back
That now I was safe and free
She's said sorry so many times
Becasue she never wanted to see
She didn't want to believe
Daddy was beating me
Now the memories run deep
So vivid in my mind
It's all over, Done for good
But I will never be fine... |
