that cried when I scolded her
Married thirteen years, I loved my wife and my job
Three perfect daughters I did not deserve
She took them away, said I had grown cold
They found another life with a new daddy to love
I tried to see them but days past they grew away
Gave them my heart, they took the life from me
I watched their life - two months after they had gone
Followed patterns - she went running in the morning
And made my plans - Ill take fear from their eyes
Daddy is at the door
Dont be afraid
Just let me in
Everything is fine
Her smile shattered - "Daddy why do you have a gun?"
Gut shot painless - I know the others will soon wake
Through the hallway - nine year old died in her bed
Master bedroom - the baby stirs in her crib
