What’s the checklist of being a father?
Because your efforts are prone to squander

Give you a greeting 
Cause it’s been a while
I look in your eyes
And I fake a smile

Were we friends? 
I can’t remember
So long ago that 
my mind has surrendered

Look what you’ve done
You’ve created a monster
Don’t wanna talk no
I don’t wanna call ya
You were my hero
A long time ago 
Scared all my friends off
And made me desolate

Nowadays it gets 
hard to remember
The person you were, 
was it any better?

I would sit and wait
For you to come home
Then when you’d show up
I would wish you were gone

I can’t express how much I hate you
I tried my best and you never came through 
I don’t ever wanna be like you
Took 18 years to figure out the truth

Now I’m left
With hate and confusion
Search my mind
And try my best not to lose it

Then came the day
That someone told me your dead
I can’t figure out
If I should even be sad

Look what you’ve done
You’ve created a monster
Don’t wanna talk no
I don’t wanna call ya
You were my hero
A long time ago 
But not anymore
Because I’m all on my own

And sometimes it gets hard
To keep on going
Then I look around at
The people that show me
That I’m worth something
That’s deeper than this
Then I no longer feel
Desolate
