Our Kids Hurt Us,
why do they hurt you and think its not wrong,
making you cry when your all alone,
they say the words that never should be said,
like i hate you mother, i wish you were dead,
they think there tough when there with friends ,
you stand there alone and nothing makes sense ,
you tremble with anger deep inside,
but there your children and your pride
what have we done that is so wrong,
the oldest child spits on the wall,
we say that there life is not tough,
when we were younger we had it rough,
you sit alone and try and work things out,
am i a bad parent without a doubt,
you sit and cry and all alone,
while your daughter thinks shes on the throne,
her life,s a mess, and hurts her sister to,
she aint scared in what she will do,
the love we give is never enough,
she make our life,s really tough,
steal and raiding when were not there,
stealing from home and she dont care,
god knows why i stand so much,
maybe she thinks our loves never enough,
the youngest child stands so strong,
my youngest child cant do no wrong,
she says, mother are you all right,
i fight back the tears so i dont give her a fright,
maybe my ex has a hand on this,
paying my daughter to give me s**,
he slanders my name all over town,
but he was the one i throw out,
he cheats and lies and does not care,
hoping the child will pull my hair,
am lost and hurt and no where to turn,
my daughter cuddles me with love,
we think its best the oldest is away,
us two can live better each day,
who are we to sit and judge,
the oldest will never know whats a mothers love,
maybe one day she will go through,
a child of hers huts her to,
its not nice to sit and think,
we pray to god, it happens and stinks,
we turn our backs this one last time,
as your no daughter that hurts with pride,
treating your mother really bad,
and a sister here you wish you never had,
this is just our last thing,
who will you turn to when you need a drink,
your sister and me see what you have done,
so go now as we have no love,,,,
