Child's Voice
That bottle of booze might be old news
But it never kept you from me
Your addiction switched from alcohol to her
She's tricked you to think I'm an evil little girl
Possessed with her looks and mind
You had no problem leaving my existence behind
Too much for you, shutting the door seemed like the easiest choice
I hope every day for the the rest of your life you hear this child's voice
How does it feel to know you're not there
When you look at her,
Does she have enough happiness to share
I can't imagine yours is real
So she'd have to have more than enough to steal
For you to get by and fake
Your okay with your choices and your fate
