Daddy Issues
World is full of witches
I'd love to write on them with stitches
Would you like to talk about your daddy issues,
I got time, lets break out some tissues

You say you want honesty
Your reaction while receiving is deceiving 

Your say you and your man share many loving...

Daddy Issues
Burying it was so easy,
momentarily relieving.

Burying it protected me,
from the inevitable responsibility,
of doing the necessary. 

Burying it gave me space,
to experience bliss,
that I wouldn't have felt worthy of, 
in another state.

Burying it made it look over,
closed, healed,
a past chapter,
One from which I heed.

Burying it did...

Daddy Issues
I can't date a girl with daddy issues because I've got daddy issues myself
I still crave the presence of the Dad I never felt
Why didn't he want me?, why wasn't I enough?
I can't date a girl with daddy issues because I've got daddy issues myself

Daddy Issues - Heavenly Father -
For many years we'd not seen eye to eye with my Father
Maybe because I feel He's not here when I need Him
Or maybe because He's far away that's why we distant
And I didn't think He'll hear if I'll call out to Him 

I've been at...

My real daddy often makes me want to beg and cry.
My sugar daddy often makes me want to try to die.
My stoner daddy often strongly refuses to even try....

Look Dad,
Look dad, I know you didn’t mean to walk out the door.
Look dad, you would never leave your daughter.
Look dad, I’m so mad
Look dad, you broke my heart.
Look dad, I’m scared she will leave.
Look dad, I don’t trust people.
Look dad, you left.
Look dad, I’ll be...

I wish you saw
I did great today.
I saw pride in the faces of people I loved.
I saw them open their arms
For a hug, for a pat on my back.
Cheers, smiles and praises greeted me
As I walked past them all.
I saw faces I loved 
But I was searching for...

Under the Pouring Rain
Under the pouring rain,
I no longer have thoughts of you
Or of your lingering presence
And your condemning silence.
To live another day without you
Feels easier as I stand drenched.

Under the pouring rain,
I could look back at history
And not feel the wrenching pain in my chest
Or the knot...

Fury's Grief
The hate in me grows like ivy.
They fear my claws and my fangs;
The same they were once proud of.
This bloody ravenous wolf-like rage,
This insatiable thirst for vengeance,
Is all that I know of.
What a vile, monstrous ugly thing it was
To have been my father's child....
