She comes to me
And cries at night
Expecting me to hold her
And keep her from fright

Then she gets so angry
And so very mad
When I don't understand
About her dad

She wishes he'd come see her
And wishes he'd care
And doesn't understand
Why he's never been there

She loves him so much
Claims to hate him too
And she longs to hear
His sweet "I love you"

She says she's not bitter
But she's so obsessed
By one little issue
I can't express

She says she's not jealous
But rages with hate
All because of one incident
That happened with fate

She wants him to die
And for him to be shot
When I point out she's angry
She claims she is not

Then she says she loves him
And wants to see him again
Cause the last time she saw him
Was when she was ten

Her thoughts grow weary
When he doesn't come around
She wants to believe in him
But her hope isn't found

She searches for the comfort
I can't seem to give
When I tell her to forget him
And go out and live

She says I don't care
And that I don't understand
I guess that's the truth
With the matter at hand

I wish she'd just learn to stop
Trying to live in the past
And look towards the future
Or else she won't last

Her crying will stop
At the end of the day
But my constant frusteration
Is here to stay
