hey dad
im writing to you
not to tell you that i still hate you
just to ask you how you feel

and how we fell apart how this fell apart
are you happy out there in this great wide world?
do u think about you sons?
do you miss your little girl?
when you lay your head down how do you sleep at night?
do you even wonder if we're alright?
but we're alright we're alright

~chorus~
its been a long hard road without you by my side
why werent you there the nights that we cried?
you broke my mothers heart
you broke your children for life
its not okay but we're alright
i remember the days you were a hero in my eyes
but those are just a long lost memory of mine
i spent so many years learning how to survive
now im writing just to let you know i'm still alive

the days i spent so cold so hungry
were full of hate i was so angry
the scars run deep inside this tatooed body
theres things i'll take to my grave
but i'm okay i'm okay

~chorus~

sometimes i forgive yeah and theres times i let live
dad i miss you said i miss you

~chorus~

sometimes i forgive yeah and this time i let live
dad i miss you i miss you hey dad
