Enough
Happy as can be was a little girl like me,
Love just spilled to everyone...so I thought,
I make one mistake
You push me through my door
Plastered me to my bed....
I thank god it was winter
For turtle neck sweaters
....
For years I said sorry
I thought I was ugly
I kept hearing how worthless I was,
I almost left this world,
For I wanted to leave
Just because one person didn't want me.
....
10years later
With a harden heart towards you
You finally say the words
That you would never say...
"I am sorry."
I could say I forgive you
But you would pretend it never happened
I could say its okay and you would hug me
But it would burn my skin,
Or I can say I know and leave it at that...
I could give you a taste of what you did
But my pain still wouldn't go away.
You say you love me,
But I can't say it to you,
I'm in so much pain
I get scared when you show your face...
No more...enough is enough,
You live your life,
I'll live mine,
Just leave me alone
For I'll be alright...
I'll show you what I was born to be
For you never believed in me.
