Father's Neglect

Oh stranger where have you gone
A distant memory that used to be
Part of the family
Your words burn like the fires of hell
The scars you left are what remains of you

Figure in the shadows
Once part of the family tree
Never to be seen again
No longer a father to me
The one I never felt
Feelings that I never knew
The one I remember so
Dark and cold
Words defining your existence
Bastardize and tear me down
What you did before you were gone

Molded in me wish I could forget your name
But I still stand in shadows
Who is this man so admirable
A monster is his true form
Spineless piece of shit
Black clouds your heart
I can still smell the poison on your breath
Not a loyal man but a empty shell
Soulless fucking coward
Slap me in the face let me feel the pain
A blank space never filled

No love
Fucking coward
Forget the memories let me be
No love no love
A space never filled

Fathers neglect
So why do I feel you here

Not who I'll be
Just apart of my past
Just leave me be
Forget the memories
I might walk the same path
But stand a better man

Fucking waste just a disgrace
Oh hellfire burn you away
Fathers neglect
Distant memory
Fathers neglect
No respect
