What if I were just like you?
Maybe then you’d love me too.
Papa, I’ve been so lonely
needing someone to hold me.
What if you could stomach me?
Maybe good friends we could be.
Papa, every day I see you,
but I’m really starting to miss you.
Daddy … don’t.
A fist is not the answer.
This isn’t what I asked for.
Daddy … don’t.
Please, just pretend to love me.
Why do you want hurt me?
What if I was to change my ways?
Maybe I wouldn't be quite so strange.
Papa, silence I can’t take no longer,
and the violence don’t make you stronger.
If I were not the child I am
I probably wouldn’t give a damn.
If you don’t see your way clear
to love me without your fear,
another chance we may not get
for living life without regrets.
