Just the Way It Is
I tried to wake you up today
Like I always do
All I did was try to care for you
Like little girls should.
Mummy, mummy
Please don't die
I need you to be here
By my side
Brothers always crying
Because he doesn't understand
That mummy only leaves us
Because living makes her sad
The whole street
Thinks your crazy
As you try to hide
The scars that made you
Your whole damn life
Why cant you just forget
Why cant you leave
The past alone
The doctors didn't care
The police were never there
As the screams of a little girl
Spilled out
Into an air of madness
Watch me bleed
I learned this from you
You were my devil
Stealing my innocence
Stuttering words I'll never forget
"Your Nothing"
Your eyes cut deep
As the knifes are aimed at me
Your love was a weapon
Puncturing my heart
You broke me
I'm a wreck.
