Broken nose, busted flab

Let me repair, let me have a stab

At mending your wounds

Expedite healing.

Flushing, stitching

I'll do my best

To seal the cracks

Leave no room for leaking.

Polite nods, secret societies

Those affairs that you keep private

Like how he hurt you, dented your door

Forced you to live a life separate

Collusion abounds, generating gears

Of unruly and unlawful plans

Tears from feeling wronged

Too late when you've kicked the can.

Let me heal those held-in sighs

Let me help you to release

Save you from a life unlived

A forehead wracked with creases

Let me step in front of that target on your back

Take one for your sole benefit

'Cause that is what Dads do

If only you will let me help you.
