Dad

Intro
Its taken me so long to write the words
I know you are not going to like it
But I have to get it off my chest, I have to say it,
I know we’re ok now,
But listen

1st Verse
.I don’t think you understand, All the pain we went through
You were killing our family, But you were killing you
.I Guess you were too drunk to see, that you were too drunk to see,
Right in front of your eyes, My mum, my brother and me
.Always walking on eggshells, Never knew when you would flip
Like the time you kicked me out, Cos for tea I wanted chips
.One night you kicked my bedroom door in, cos my bro was in bed
Me and a friend chilled to music, he went home scared instead

2nd Verse
.That evening in the living room, When mum had turned her back
She was upstairs out the way, You thought I’ll give him a smack
.One in the face and I’m floored, I’m curled up tight in a ball
Then several kicks to my back, I cried but took them all
.Then you grabbed me off the ground, And threw me out the back door
Shouting and swearing and told me, that I don’t live here no more
.Just a kid of fifteen, you put me out on the track
Two hours later calling my mates Dad telling me to come back
.Cos you had to explain your shitty actions to my Mum
And she just wasn’t taking the bullshit you’d done to her son
.Now you’re out of vodka again shops are closed up for the night
So Off to bed to sleep it off, ready for another fight
.You’re up and at the shop, for when they open the doors,
On your way back swaying hard, how are you not on all fours,
.How are you going to work, how are you keeping that job
How are we keeping our home, how can you make my mum sob
.And cry then blame it on her, I thought that you love her Dad
How could you treat us this way, how could you treat us so bad,
.You know we found your hidden bottles, tip the poison away,
You never said a fucking word, you just headed the shops way
.We didn’t speak for so long, We didn’t know who we were
I didn’t even want to help you, until I met her
.A woman you didn’t even know, a woman I once called my wife
This woman came and helped me, help you to save your own life







3rd Verse
.I’m so glad you gave it up, I’m so glad for our last fight
And all the shit we went through, staying up with you all night
.When I poured your last bottle, I made you watch me and think
About your beautiful grand kids, as it flowed down the sink
.You lost your enemy then, and gained some family back
You had that fighting chance, to get yourself everything back
.If you didn’t stop that day, you know that you would be dead
I wouldn’t be saying this to you, Id be saying it to a grave instead,
.All the times you hit me, All the times you made me cry
For no reason you were drunk, asked me once to help you die
.On your knees in the kitchen, Crying, sobbing so bad
I hated you for it for so long, I have to love you, your my Dad
.I can’t forgive you everything, This shit is stuck in my mind
Forever in boxed in my head, I’ll try to leave it all behind
.But even when we argue now, I forget good times had
I’ll ne’r be at total peace, I have to love you, your my Dad
