You were never there for me when I needed you the most,
Always saying you were a phone call away,
I did not want that,
I wanted you with me, in front of me, to be there to hold me,
You weren't,
So far away,
Always,
I blame you

Watching everybody else play catch or tossing a ball,
It always made me dream,
What if?
That what if never came a reality,
It was always business, business, BUSINESS!
I blame you

You chose her,
You chose your job,
You chose your pets,
Over me,
I was a child,
A teenager,
Now a man,
You weren't there for those years,
You chose to be with them,
I blame you

I'll never know what could have been,
I'll stop dreaming,
I'll stop trying to make excuses for you,
Why?
I have begun to finally move on,
Finally begun my journey on my path in life,
I have finally realized the person who you truely are,
I have begun to see what people were always telling me,
The real you,
I blame you

You never listened,
Never cared to hear my side,
You will never EVER know how I feel,
I blame you

It's hard to love someone,
It's hard to believe that I have so many worries,
Will I be able to love,
Will I be able to let someone into my life,
Will I make your mistakes,
Scared and terrified I am,
I blame you

Life isn't so easy for me,
Like you said, life doesn't owe you anything,
If life doesn't owe me anything,
Then I don't owe you anything either,
I blame you

I needed some help,
But you turned me away,
I needed that left leg,
But you turned me away,
I blame you

I am trying to make a better life for me,
I am trying to be strong,
Hopeful for the future and greatful for the life you never gave me,
I won't let you bring me down,
I won't let you try and make me feel bad,
I won't give in,
I won't,
I blame you

I'll make sure to write you a thank you note,
I'll date it,
Sign it in pen,
So long to the past and my dreams,
I won't forget you,
I won't forget the times I turned to you and you pushed me away,
I blame you

A lesson will be taught,
One for me,
And one for you,
I will move on,
Become someone you will never really know,
I will be the person you never were,
I blame you

I will be the dad you never were and never have been,
My kids will never forget me,
Never be left without a left leg,
Never be left alone,
I will teach them right from wrong,
How to love and treat someone,
How to be a great human being,
I will never let them fall,
I will be there for them whenever they need me,
I will make sure they have the opportunities you didn't give me,
I will make sure that they,
That they don't ever blame me the way I blame you,
I blame you

My life has just started a new chapter,
Right now,
That chapter is without you,
Most of my chapters have been,
I will only look forward for now on,
Never look back,
As much as I hate to say this but,
I will always love you,
I will always be greatful you gave me life,
And only life,
I blame you
