A Fathers Fight

Anymore time away from my daughters This world will have to prepare for a storm they cant predict I could be gone in a blink of an eye So believe me when I say for my daughters I am willing to die When I try and try I feel more and more like this world is one big lie I have asked for help through this mess But it seems as if everyone could care less As I try to do this a lone All I can do is pray to the One who sits on the throne But even he knows if things don't change I will set out on a mission like Jesse James For I am done with all the games There isn't a word to describe this kind of mad All I want to do is be a dad The pain is so deep as I stand a lone on this roof top all I want to do is leap But hope I try to keep And though the love in my heart is almost gone I try to stay strong But these words aren't lyrics from some random song I feel Like a wolf backed in a corner with nothing to lose And ready to unleash all kinds of pain Almost insane from standing in the rain I wait and pray I will see my daughters again someday
