(Verse 1)
Did you ever notice?
The broken child in my eyes
Drowning in the tears you caused
Longing for the love you denied
She misses you, but I don’t
Who lets a child drown?
Dear Dad, I gave up hoping
You’d ever come around
(Pre-Chorus)
I’m not upset anymore
I’ve forgiven you, I swore
But you hurt the little girl in me
And that’s something I can’t ignore
(Chorus)
I wonder, do you ever think of me?
Locked up inside, lost in your memories
Surrounded by ghosts of what you’ve done
But you’ll never know who I’ve become
(Verse 2)
I grew up too fast, you made me
Chasing a love you never gave me
Told me lies, said they’d filled my head
But now I see it was you instead
I tried so hard to make you proud
But why did I have to prove it somehow?
When loving your child should be so easy
But you never figured it out
(Pre-Chorus)
I’m not upset anymore
I’ve forgiven you, I swore
But you hurt the little girl in me
And that’s something I can’t ignore
(Chorus)
I wonder, do you ever think of me?
Locked up inside, lost in your memories
Surrounded by ghosts of what you’ve done
But you’ll never know who I’ve become
(Bridge)
Your lies filled my head, I let you back in
But you shattered my trust all over again
You as my father killed
The last of my childhood
(Outro)
So I hope you wonder, but never find out
Who I am now, what I’m about
I grew up, I learned the truth
But you never will…
