Angel

The pain that consumes my heart,

Leaves me falling to pieces in the dark. 

I hear his voice coming from the other room,

Oh how I know that once he's done with her...

I will be the one that is doomed. 

I wish he could feel our pain, 

I wish my father wasn't insane. 

Why can't he see the tears that I cry, 

I can't wait till they take me away and I get to tell him goodbye.

I love my father... can't he tell. 

All I want is a hug and a smile or two,

Maybe when he puts down the bottle he can teach me how to tie my shoes.

I want his love not his hate. 

Father please forgive me for my mistakes,

I'm just a child... please don't blow

I do not know that I anger you so,

I will stand in front of heavens gates,

So please be good to her, and don't be late.
