lyrics

God, I hope that you are scared of the monster I could be, that could tear out both your lungs because you don't deserve to breathe. Instead, I hope you're happy, though I pray you're losing sleep. Because the monster you became never got a hold of me. I remember, one night you were waiting for us on the front porch, eyes as wide as the moon. Desperate, like an animal, running back and forth between mine and my mother's rooms. "Yeah right, like I'm just going to throw you my wallet. We all know what you're about to do. You're going to walk out that door with something while we sleep.” Where have you gone? Your wife's sleeping alone. I'm wondering, "What's it going to be like if he comes home tonight?” Two a.m. and you still haven't shown, so she folds down all the blinds and she turns off all of the lights. You were a husband, a father, a well-dressed wolf on a Sunday night. You hid so well until we got in the car. Now, your once little girl is growing up without you in her life. Just who the fuck do you think that you are? For seventeen hard years, I called you daddy. Something my father only had one chance to be. I'll never love you again and I'll never be you. No, I won’t be like you. Because you didn't plant this seed.
