Lyrics

I
When I was just a child, I ran to the door
while you kept beating me till I could see no more.
That day, what should have been a beautiful meal
was spoilt by all the angry noise and desperate screams:

CHORUS:
I wish that you were there to guide me;
I wish that you were not the storm that stopped me moving;
in every dream and memory I have of you,
I only see your angry eyes.

II
And every day since then has been extremely hard;
I feared those days where you would fly right off the wall,
for simple things like telling you about my dreams;
I risked my life to share with you what I believed:

III
You said that when you left this earth, I wouldn't cry,
but I'm in constant mourning since the day you died;
I've not been crying over you these last few years,
but over all the blows I suffered at your hands:

FINAL CHORUS:
I wish that I could hear your voice once again,
that I could finally hear you say that you are proud of me,
that with a single word, you'd undo the pain
that you have shown me all those years.
