Let Down

You let me down

You let me cry

Always disappointment

And a million goodbyes

You cut me off

For days at a time

You didn’t pick up

Or answer the line

You’d threaten me

With your selfish ways

Never held me tight

And said it’d be OK

I just wanted a daddy

Like the other girls had

One who’d read them stories

And hug them if they were sad

You let me down

A thousand times

Turned out the light

So the sun didn’t shine

You fucked me up

And now it’s too late

I’ve waved goodbye

I’ve cleared my plate.
