Selfish Man
As I look at his face in his depressed state
The man just sits and stares into space
His face all twisted with anger and hate,of what has gone on in his daily place
This is a man that's held grudges for years
And when he cries it's crocodile tears
Never a man to let things go,he'll always tell you how much you owe.
He's not father or friend but rather drive you round the bend
He never sees people and he should intend
Because he'll never have a good word in the end.
This is a man that pushes people away
With his snide remarks he could make all day.
As he wonders why people don't call anymore
He has to realise there sick to the core.
This is a man that's hard to call dad
Because the life he leads is so sad
He can't build a bond because his demons are so strong
His family have left him and gone gone gone
This is a man that will never realise that a family bond is the star prise
