Daddy, I'm not your princess.

I cannot be that gorgeous girl.

I'm sorry, daddy, for not being

your perfect girl, for not being

the smart girl you've 

always dreamed about.


I wish I made you happy,

I'd like to see you smile.

But I've only made you 

scream and say how much

you feel disappointed about me.


I'm not beautiful, I'm not smart.

Perhaps I shouldn't exist.

I wish you could feel proud.

Why can't I be your girl?

Why can't I be your pride?

Perhaps you would love me

the way I've always longed for.


I wanted to be your precious girl,

a smart, sweet and beautiful girl. 

But I only make you feel angry.


Perhaps I shouldn't exist.

I've tried so hard to know

what is wrong in me.

I don't have anything good.


Daddy, I'm not stupid, awkward

and ugly because I want.

It isn't my fault if I've never

been the way you thought

a girl should be.


Daddy, I'm not your princess.

I'm so sorry for only making

you feel mad and disappointed.


Perhaps I should disappear

to make you feel happy.

And I would have peace

for not having to hear

how I make you mad.
