Battle Or War
Things have changed
Since we met
But there are things
That we should forget.
There is a battle
Or maybe a war
That’s going on between us
Like never before.
You say you love me
I say I hate you
But the truth is
I love you too.
We always argue
Over dumb things
And say things that
We both don't mean.
I know it's hard for you
But just understand
That all I ever wanted
Was a loving, caring dad.
Maybe it's me
Or maybe it's you
'Cause I know I have a temper
But I know you do too.
We need to communicate
Just like you said
But all you do is
Lay on your bed.
I’m tired of all this stress
I know there's more to come
One day they will forgive me
For all the things I have done.
I’m tired of running
From all this pain
I just need a hug
Or to be loved again.
Dad, I’m sorry
For all the things I do
I hope you forgive me
'Cause I forgive you.
