Letter to Dad

What made your eyes open
Before the sound of the alarm?
Before time and memory convinced you
Work was all you've ever known?

What did you have to shut down
What dreams did you hide
What would the boy inside you
Given the chance want to try?

I don't know you like I ought to
Would you like to talk?
I don't know you or how to even start to
Would you like to talk?

What set your heart in motion
What got in its way
Do our ideas of love differ
Do you regret anything?

I don't know you like I ought to
Would you like to talk?
Sometimes I don't think I even want to
Would you like to talk?

I've been hurt by you
I have been loved too
But that does not undo
That my anger has value

Yes I've been hurt by you
And the pain continues
And I don't know what to do
Cause I know you're hurting too

You don't know me like you should
Would you like to talk?
I don't know you or if I even want to
But would you like to talk?
You don't know me like you should
Would you like to talk?
I don't know you or how to even start to
Would you like to talk?
Would you like to talk?
