Present Day Cinderella

Present Day Cinderella Screaming is all I hear Cuss words thrown across the room She has to yell Makes me want to die I want to run away But I still have to go back to that place This is what I call home Constant cleaning This is the present This is where I am It could be worse But this is hard This is why I don't know love This is why I don't want to go home She is there My mother I know she cares But I cant help but think Without her it'd be better Today I am Cinderella Always cleaning Always babysitting Boys who know wrong from right But don't show it Never asking for anything Then at night Being screamed at Because she cant recognized all i do
