Why must you always yell?
God, how your screams fill the house
You make all of our lives a living hell
I understand its not you screaming
Its the alcohol
Some days I just wish I was dreaming
You say how you hate my mother
How can you say something so hurtful?
And all those hateful comments about my brother
I try to love you, Dad
Even as you`re throwing things
I want to stay here with you so bad
I have to go
I have no choice
Just thought you should know
You`ve caused me to want to leave this place
Why couldn`t you just stop for one night?
I will never forget your drunken face
