Daddy's Girl

[Darcy Delaproser]

Played out by 'My way' Presley not Sinatra
The funeral procession of my estranged father
I can't say I was sad that my father had died
The relief when let loose all those fears I'd hide
He did some stuff which I like think he felt shame
He played with my childhood like some hand in a game
Simple as that, did it matter or not?
That depended entirely on the amount in the pot!
So now I can tell you all I was too scared to say
How you made me fearful every minute of each day
Belittled by every word that you spoke
Damaged maybe, but not totally broke
Thrown on the streets as a child of five no coping skills of how to survive
Took in by the police frightend and weak
Terrified to answer, afraid to speak
Returned to my Father as a runaway brat
Soon as they left I came under attack
My one only friend by whom I was honestly loved
Taken from me by your hand in black gloves
Della my dog was so golden and bright
Why drown her in the bath under the darkness of night?
Not done with your evil you were so damn depraved
You then made me bury her in a shallow grave
Whilst with friends your an angel well known
End of the evening the devil came home
And the beatings so violent likes a child should not know
I'd pray every night that you would just go
Why did you hate me? what was my crime?
To be the object of hatred time after time
From now on it is 'My way' how my life will be lived
As into the ground your coffin is slid
Farewell to daddy may you find some release
Guess your not the only one now given peace
I don't have to be afraid
To love him was not a crime
Still I won't allow his memory
To poison my adult mind
So you're gone now and buried
And you're not living in me
I cast you out - At last daddy I'm free!
