Perfect Daughter
They all call me crazy. But I’m not
I say nothing, but I want you to stop.
Stop stop stop
I scream in the shower
Then I get out
Nothing happened nothing happened
I’m fine so fine, can’t you see?
But there’s tear stains on my cheeks.
I can’t say how I’m feeling
You don’t listen, you never do.
Sometimes I wish that I was heartless just like you.
But I feel to deeply
And love to much
Just want
I can’t say I can’t say
My hands are tied
Im afraid im afraid
