Don'T Be Upset

If I told you that I hated you, you would cry, and I hate it when you cry, because then I cry too So if I was hurt because you were hurt then maybe I don't really hate you. Maybe I hate what you've become and what you are becoming As the days pass on by you can see that your little girl is becoming a woman and it hurts to let go you want to hold on tight Sometimes so tight that she's gasping for the world around her she knows that it is just for her protection but what would happen if she didn't experience things on her own You may tell her what's wrong and what's right but the truth is when there's too much right being done she turns to wrong for answers so no matter how tight you hold on she's still gonna learn on her own and no matter how much you tell her you love her she's still gonna tell you she hates you because it's wrong.
