Broken Home

I’m a teenage guy who goes to school.
Everyone thinks I’m so much fab and cool.
But have they heard this story of mine?
Got a broken heart that’s not well and fine.

My mom dislikes me in some ways.
Dad is out ‘cause he’s looking for his days…
Both of them aren’t good with each other.
That’s why I’m troubled and so much bothered.

School sucks without their love.
Is this a punishment from heavens above?
Now they finally decide to split for good.
It’s so much sad to decide for it’s a “should”.

Now I’m broken and I’m so lost.
No family to cry on because they’re ghost.
Wish I was not born to feel this pain.
Just be a crazy one if this is I have to gain.

I don't know exactly how painful it is, but everything has a purpose. It makes you stronger day by day.
