How could you leave like you did,

Leave me standing beside the car?

How do you drive away from your kid,

Who is broken because you are

a problem, a coward, running from God?

You can’t yell and scream the issues away.

I won’t sit by, no more smile and nod.

Why was it me, why did I have to pay,

and become your escape, your way out?

I did nothing but love you enough to speak,

your words, your actions only filled me with doubt.

Why did you lie, hide and sneak?

Was it worth throwing everything in the trash?

We were so close, the memories flood me.

You killed the happiness, you had a stash

of secrets and at first I didn’t see.

Because I was Daddy’s Girl, you could do no wrong.

Until my eyes opened, the dam burst.

I saw what was happening all along.

It seemed like Daddy’s Girl was cursed.

You chose to turn on me, to leave it all behind,

when you ruined what we had by that one car ride.

You must be out of your mind.

I realized my daddy long ago died.

He’s been gone for ages, I just didn’t see.

Daddy’s Girl is gone now too, not by her choice.

He I hope will someday miss me.

Daddy’s Girl has been silenced, she has no voice.
