I hate you, Dad, for what you did To me when I was just a child, A helpless thing whom you could beat Until the excess bile was drained. To me, when I was just a child, You were God unmerciful Until the excess bile was drained And you were once again my friend. You were God unmerciful, And I was Satan, Lord of Hell, Until you were again my friend And curdled my last drops of love. And I was Satan, Lord of Hell, A helpless thing whom you could beat Until you curdled all my love. I hate you, Dad, for what you did.
