"Piece By Piece, I'm Lost Without Words"

You said you would never let a tear
Drop fall down from my face but all
I remember is your back wallkin' out
The front door leavin' me, your precious
Angel, a gift from above all in your past
Wanting her father to want her but you
Clearly didn't want too it is like he doesn't
Hear a word i say as if his mind is somewhere
Far away when all of your words have fallen flat
Your love is no longer easy it has to be earned
I traveled 637 miles to  be taken care of by
Another man who never walked away, never
Asked for money, he never breaked my heart all
Because he loves me, see you have given me life,
And I just want you to know that you are the reason
I am here today but unlike you he will put me first
And never have me question my worth but piece
By piece he filled the holes that you burned in me
Collected me up off the ground where you abandoned
Things, when I make something of myself you are
Going to try to come back but maybe when you had
A chance you should have opened your eyes to witness
The woman standing before you but piece by piece he
Stored my faith that a man can be kind and it takes a
Real father to stay I will no longer aim to please because
I no longer have to since I made it this far without you...
