Forgive me daddy
Forgive me
Daddy
I'm not a snob
I'm just a kid who
Gets comfussed
I hear what they say
It cuts like glass
They laugh
Then walk away so fast
They tell me I'm nothing
They say I'm odd
Like I'm not human at all
Dad
It hurts so much
I come home quiet
Afraid that you see me fall
Forgive me
Daddy
For disappointing you
For all the times I swore I'd
Change
Then did the same old
Things I do
Forgive me
Daddy
I know you see straight through
All of my broken little promises
I still wanna be god for you
Dad
I'm not a statue
I'm not a statue
I'm someone shaking in
My skin
Daddy
I have to change
How I talk
How I turn away
I wanna look you in the eyes
And mean it when I say
Forgive me
Daddy
One day you'll see
The promise I keep
Will be the one to be better
For you
And for me
They pull at my heart
Then call it weak
I keep the tremble tucked within
Sometimes with my friends
I Iaugh along
Pretend that I don't feel a thing
I know that you're not happy
When I slam the door
When I shut you out
I know I make it harder
To understand what I'm
Crying about
