Did you ever really care?

What you do makes me cry,
But I honestly can\'t deny
That in my heart I truly love you
You\'ll always be my only dad.

You haven\'t quite been the father I\'ve needed
And you haven\'t always told me what I want to hear
You\'ve never really been here like you say, and you\'ve shown me this ever single day. 


I just want to see you every day,
I just want a simple text saying you love me, and that you\'ve been there from the start, 
I don\'t think you understand,
That what you\'ve done has torn me apart.

So for now I\'ll just sit here and wait,
For the day that you grow up
And realize that you\'ve hurt
Not only me, but also your family. 

You\'ve let this women pretend to be my mother
For so very long I let you.
But now that I\'m older
I understand more and I can\'t accept that.

I cannot turn to you for what I need,
I don\'t know if you\'d ever give it to me.
I just want to know, Did you ever really care?
