Alcoholic

when's daddy coming home?
why's he taking so long?
four kids and a wife all alone
hearts turning into cold stone

where in the world can he be?
does he even care about his family?

he's off somewhere drinking beer
that's the reason he's not here
when he's home we live in fear
and pray that we can disappear

don't say a word you may get smacked
physically & verbally attacked
not sure exactly how to react
there are things you just can't take back

never knew if we'd have food to eat
never had new shoes on our feet

never could have friends to spend the night
cause we never knew if there'd be a fight

kept all our feelings deep inside
never let anyone know how much we cried
long ago our childhood died
a lifetime of love has been denied

that's the life we once had known
living in an alcoholics home
