Father, why are things this way? You said you loved me the other day, you said some things would eventually change, I feel the pain day after day. I'm a good boy, don't you believe me? Is the love we share really for real? Tell me, am I a good boy? Father, we're so close and yet so far, I know your days are long and hard, I do alright, why do you hurt me so? Was there something I did to cause this all? chorus.
