Resentment

My daddy gave you everything
You took it all including me
You gave my daddy nothing back
You piece of shit
You hypocrite
Your faceless persona I can't attack

My momma went to slave for you
You used her up and took her too
You left my momma nothing more
Than broken dreams
And endless screams
That echo as you close the door

On both
On more
On countless scores
Of used up tools
You made the rules
And broke them as they suited you

Hide behind the cheap disguise
Your fucking lies I do despise

And now I give you everything
A lesson I have yet to learn
I think I see but can't affect
A strong desire to watch it burn

And in my absence, my love fails
But in my presence nothing heals
You've left me nothing for the life
I long to lead, just pain and strife

My children and their children both
I hope for more, I hope they won't
Fall into this insipid trap
This hole of heart
This torn apart
This sacrifice they can't get back

Later-E
