Father

A man in the shadows calls my name
In the middle of an empty street
He says he's my father
But he's lying I never had a man who washed my face
Hm-hm, hm-hm

All my life, I've lived with wandering men
Who were looking for a better bed for them
They never cared about me
They never taught me how to fix a crane
Or change a broken wheel chamber in a car
But they were so desperate to call me their daughter
Without knowing consequences
At a breakneck pace
Ran down the aisle with my mother and called themselves family
There can be no family here
I don't even know who these people are and what their names

How can we live in this dark world
How can we live in a greedy place
How can we blame others when only you are to blame
How can we dream of heaven when we create hell

I need my father
Where is he
I need my father
Where is he

But was he ever a good man if he didn't want to call me his daughter
He crosses the street every time
When he sees me like I'm like the plague that will kill him
Do I need, why does he reject my existence?
Cos, I didn't ask for a damn thing
Maybe he thought that the April Fool's joke would remain a joke
But if after nine months joke it turned into a living being...

How can we live in this dark world
How can we live in a greedy place
How can we blame others when only you are to blame
How can we dream of heaven when we create hell

I don't need that sucker
I don't give fuck where he
I don't need that sucker
I don't give fuck where he

Listen to me now
Your brother has done more for me than you in your life
So close your mouth because you already fucked up your time
