Rejection

What did i do so wrong
my life was never a flower or a song
why did you hit me so much
shoving my face in your crotch

i was just a little boy
and i became every-ones toy
at night i cry because i cant tell
just trying to be loved, but oh well.....

all i ever wanted was to belong
always tried to be so strong
this house, that house
bullied for listening to Strauss

i went to hospital for a long time
no-one called or cared a dime
my soul was empty my heart was breakin
i hoped someone loved me but i was mistakin

i found love in a man
and my life just began
then he was taken by a woman in a car
that emptiness left a great big scar

then i found love again and what she gave
a boy and girl, with my eyes, and i felt safe
my life was great i still love them all 
but you ended it, it was your call

so here i am left all alone and scared 
can this damage ever be repaired 
there's this hole in me, i call emptiness 
which i have tried to express

every-time i want to tell you i break down
i want to be strong but now i'm more face-down
i'm becoming a great pretender
with my life line so tender

i'm told every pot has a lid
do you think that is for me forbid
