You Lost Me, Father

Описание: I really wanted this song to be more of a story...
i dont know how to edit to make me sound like a child... so i did more clear less touched, less edited, less tuning and effects.. and the further in the song the more effects.. the older.. my adhd cant really explain things so ill dumb it down.. you know for people like me haha

first verse( child)
second verse(teenhood)
bridge(adult)
concluion is of acceptance

verse one(childhood)
I waited quiet, small hands open wide,
While pain crept in and no one took my side.
You knew the truth, but never made a sound,
Just let them bruise me when you weren't around.
A laugh, a gift, a rare and distant face
Then gone again, like love could be replaced.
You knew and left, then came to play pretend,
But ghosts don’t get to claim the child they end.



Chorus
Why didn’t you help me?
Why didn’t you stay?
Why watch the hurt and
Then walk away?
Was I too broken
For you to see?
Why don’t you ever
Come back for me?



second verse(teenhood)
You came again when I had learned to hide,
And wore regret like armor dipped in pride.
You said you'd try, then mocked the way I grew
As if my change was something you'd undo.
I found my strength while you just stood and stared,
You couldn’t see the pain, the weight I bared.
You saw me rise, but you just pulled me down,
And left me fighting, lost without your sound.


Chorus
Why say you’re trying,
Then close your eyes?
Why can’t you love me
When I don’t disguise?
Why come to hurt me
With every word?
Why act like loving
Me is absurd?


bridge(adulthood)
It wasn’t me you chose to walk away.
You knew I needed you and stayed at bay.
You let them break me, knowing what they'd do,
Then left me there and claimed your hands were true.
You mocked my growth because you feared the light
But I survived while you stayed out of sight.
And now I know, it cuts but sets me free:
You never saw a child
you saw debris.


[Verse]
I don’t ask why now,
I’ve faced the flame.
You lost the right to
Even my name.
I found my own way,
I made it through.

conclusion(acceptance)
You lost me, Father
And I lost you.
