I Wish People Knew
I wish people knew how I feel all the time, I dont make any lies,
I WISH people knew, what words.come out of my kids mouths,
I wish people knew, what goes on behind closed doors,
I wish people knew, how my kids make me feel, how I cry myself to sleep
Were parents, were supoose to love, nurture, we arent suppose to be weak.
I wish people knew, how much stress we under 24/7
We dont get a break, we dont have support, our idea of an outing, is a drie to the dollar store,
We sit and watch tv, or listen to our kids fight, until we give in,
Oh how I wish we could just jump off a bridge,
I wish people knew, how much we hide behind our fake smiles,
I wish people knew, how much we really try, we just dont have
The energy to keep fighting anymore...
