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 alright But we're alright We're alright
It's been a long hard road without you by my side Why weren't you there 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 remember the days you were a hero in my eyes But those are 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
It's been a long hard road without you by my side Why weren't you there 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 remember the days you were a hero in my eyes But those are just a long lost memory of mine Now I'm writing just to let you know I'm still alive And I'm still alive
Sometimes I forget Yeah, and this time I'll admit dad I miss you Said I miss you
It's been a long hard road without you by my side Why weren't you there 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 remember the days you were a hero in my eyes But those are just a long lost memory of mine Now I'm writing just to let you know I'm still alive
And sometimes I forgive This time I'll admit Dad I miss you I miss you Hey dad
