Would You Come After Me?

Lately, I've been looking in the mirror And trying to see you beyond my eyes. I may be a fool, but I am not blind. As much as I wish it, you aren't there. I've spoken hidden words, Hoping you would understand, But you haven't been there for me. I have to wonder who or what I am to you. And I have to wonder how I can bear Belonging to someone who just doesn't care. I have to wonder.... If I ran, would you come after me? If I stopped, what would you say? If I just closed my eyes And let myself fall, Would you catch me? Or would you walk back down that hall? Block me out? Pretend I never called? If I was in danger, would you fight for me? If I was hurt, would you avenge me? If I was sick, would you hold my hand and pray for me to be well? If I died, Daddy, would you care at all? So if I run now, And you don't want me to go, Then come after me fast. I may keep looking back, But if you're not coming, Daddy, I ain't ever turning back. If I ran, would you come after me? If I stopped, what would you say? If I just closed my eyes and let myself fall, would you catch me? Or would you walk back down that hall? Block me out? Pretend I never called? I need to know... So, here I go, I need to know, Daddy. Would you come after me?
