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
