This is for the one person who cannot believe I'm not perfect! The one who is now turning his back on me because I finally can start fixing my life.

So this is for you,

To say to you,

I'm beginning to hate you.


It’s a tragedy that you only see me as perfect.
You think every flaw is only for show
So I thought I’d write these words just for you
There are so many things you need to know

I know you’re not blind
Though you pretend to be
I know only the best
Is what you want from me

But you’re just as much to blame
For the things I must live through
Because as much as you hate it
I got this life from you

This is not a game
Or a trick I’m playing
And I don’t think its fun
Can you hear what I’m saying?

I know you can’t feel
The searing anger within me
But to say it’s not there!
How ignorant can you be?

You cannot understand
How fast it can come
But at least you could pretend
That you would help me some

It’s not a game or an excuse
For the things from my past
But it is a sign of hope
That I could be normal at last

You’re happy to share my joy
You had no problem sharing my money
But you won’t share my burden
And I don’t find that funny

This is your job
What you are supposed to do
So grow up and be a man
Or is it too much for you

At least one thing I know
I learned thanks to you
Regardless my faults
I’ll be a better father then you
