I wrote this in high school when i was attempting to write a song while learning to play the guitar.......


Daddy

Daddy


Daddy, why now dad so soon
I was still in her stomach when she od'd in june
she was addicted two years to the day i couldn't help it, i was born that way
memory one-a bathroom somewhere, she wasn't crying, didn't even care.
all alone nothing to do, i;m so little, just brand new
then i was crying a woman walked in, said "oh heavens, forgive thier sins"
she drove with me a long way down, first he smiled, then he frowned, he saw the signs, i was withdrawing, he said, " stat, get on it, this baby is dying"
now i'm lying here two months early, you keep repeating" god dammit, shirley"
i have to go now after knowing you not long, before i go though, sing me a song.
my breath is getting shorter, you hold my hand and cry, thinking hold in thier son, you shouldnt have to die.
i'm not ready to go yet, i wish that i could stay, i love you and i'm sorry, now i have to go away.
