This artist reveals the emotional aspect of divorce and parental conflict. A sad child with large blue tears is trying to cover their face and ears-possibly to drown out the fighting. Notice, that even the blue cover has a sad face with bewildering eyes and a forlorn look. This child seems to be holding the cap very tightly to keep the sound out. I hope the parents stop fighting soon.
The artist shares the lyrics of a song below the picture. Undoubtedly, these are the thoughts of too many children experiencing parental conflict.
Excellent representation of divorce from the child’s view point.
Song lyrics
Four years old
With my back to the door
All I could hear
Was the family war
Your selfish hands
Always expecting more
Am I your child?
Or jut a charity award?
You have a hollowed out heart
But it’s heavy in your chest
I tried so hard to fight it but it’s hopeless
Hopeless
You’re hopeless
Oh father
Please father
I’d love to leave you alone
But I can’t let you go
Oh father
Please father
Put the bottle down
For the love of a daughter
It’s been five years
Since we’ve spoken last
And you can’t take back
What we never had
I can be manipulated
Only so many times
Before even I Love You
Starts to sound like a lie
You have a hollowed out heart
But it’s heavy in your chest
I tried so hard to fight it but it’s hopeless
Hopeless
You’re hopeless
Oh father,
Please father
I’d love to leave you alone
But I can’t let you go
Oh father
Please father
Put the bottle down
For the love of a daughter
Don’t you remember I’m your baby girl?
How you push me our of your world?
Lied to your flesh and your blood
Put your hands on the ones that you swore ou loved
Don’t you remember I’m your baby girl?
How could you throw me right out of your world?
So young when the pain had begun
Now forever afraid of being loved
Oh father
Please father
I’d love to leave you alone but I can’t let you go
Oh father
Please father
Put the bottle down
For the love of a daughter
For the love of a daughter
I recently found out my father cheated on my mom and they divorced..He promised me he would still be there for me..but doesn’t even bother to call me..
