Nobody knows how I feel
Why won't these wounds heal
I've not done anything bad
You're supposed to be my dad
What did I do for you to be this way
What is it you want me to say
Why did you turn your back
Is it feelings for me you lack
So many questions I want to ask
Though its not such an easy task
What did I do for you to be this way
What is it you want me to say
You found me after twenty six years
Though still it ended with me in tears
It didn't take me long to see
You never really wanted to know me
What did I do for you to be this way
What is it you want me to say
Though no answers have been achieved
I'm sure you must feel relieved
Months of silence have been and gone
Though I know I must move on
What did I do for you to be this way
What is it you want me to say
Time to let my open wounds heal
Releasing the pain I deeply feel
By leaving the what, why, how
And living in the here and now
