It's Just Not Fair

It's just not fair how bad you treat me sometimes

I can't believe it, why must it be me who is hurt?

You spent all your time with them, you gave

Them their special dance. They have so much of you

And the worst part is that I was supposed to be the one

You loved the most! You can't hide it, you showed me

How much our bond meant to you, and yet here I am

Alone in this world, without you

 

Why did you have to leave me?

Why can't I have one more moment with you?

They could spend as much time with you, I

Had to stay away. And then you left forever

You just left me behind. With only these tears

These fucking tears that I have to cry

 

I can't even call you! It just hurts to much

I'm scared of begging you to come back

Please come back to me! I was supposed to be the one

You loved the most. We were supposed to have this

Very special bond, yet you left me here alone

Why must I cry every night for you?

Why can't I be in your arms right now?

You said you would always love me, why does

It feel like the greatest fallacy ever told!

 

I can't help the way I feel, I'm sorry that I hurt you

When I don't call, I just don't want to beg! I can't let

You see how much I'm hurt! Why must I be the one to

Suffer for what that woman did to your heart?

I didn't push you away, you're the one who decided to

Leave. Why won't you come back to me, why?

 

Please daddy, don't go... I didn't get to say goodbye

Why must you leave me behind? Why do I have to cry

For you? Everyday leaves me with so much pain. I can't

Even cry in your embrace. I can't look at your face

You don't know how much I miss you

You don't know how much I need you here with me

It's not fair that you had to leave me. Please come back

To me, daddy! I can't take the pain anymore.

 

We were supposed to be so close... Have that very

Special bond. I thought I was your little girl. But now

You're just gone! And damn it all, I can't help it.

I'm begging you to come back to me. I need you here

Beside me. I was the one you loved the most. Why am

I the only one to suffer? Why can't I have that last goodbye?

Why would you leave me here without you?

 

Dear Daddy, I'm getting married. Everyday

takes me a step closer to saying “I do”.

I need you here to help me get through each day

I need you to hold me, and tell me it's ok

I can't just call!!! Can't you see that you left me broken?

It's just not fair. They all had their day! I want the same.

You gave them their dance. You gave them away! Why

do I have to be left behind. In this world where I'm the

only fucking child? You used to make me strong.

You used to hold me tight. I can't feel you anymore.

You're gone, and I can't take it anymore. “Life's not

fair”. True enough... But all I want is to have my

Daddy back again.
