Tell Me Why?
things used to be ok at least ok to wana get by,
things have kept on changing, now i sit and cry.
i miss the way we got along, the good times and the bad,
now we are split apart, separate, lonely and sad.
We have been together all the way, separate us, no one could,
We had eachother, we got eachother, in a way no 1 understood.
No one knew except me and you, the confusion in our minds,
She screwed us up, we wernt having much luck, but we got along without her just
fine fine.
She told us things that were not true, to get the attention she craved,
Then she left us as if we meant nothing.. were we badly behaved?
As we grew we found out for ourselves the kind of person she had become,
And the way she was was not our fault, it was nothing we had done.
She was meant to protect us, she was ment to care,
Why didn’t she want us, why its not fair.
She wernt there to wipe our tears or give us a kiss goodnight,
Instead she would tell us bad things that wernt true, really gave us a fright.
As time went on I thought she would change, for her childrens sake,
But I was wrong, she didn’t care, her loving attitude was fake.
Even when we were settled down in a new home starting over fresh,
She didn’t like it , she didn’t want us happy, so she caused a big mess.
That’s all shes done throughout our lives, tried to ruin anything good we had,
We did nothing wrong, we were just kids, she had no right to make us sad.
But all this time I new we would be ok as long as we stuck together,
Live our lives not caring what she thought, wernt gona let her get to us never!
But then u went and did something that I never thought u would do,
Went back to the one person, who never once cared for you.
All those years she left you crying after telling you a lie,
All the broken promises and false hopes, so why? Tell me why?
Why did you go back to her, surely you new it would be a mistake,
I cant believe you left me, just another promises to break.
You were the one person I could rely on, you understood what I felt,
But then you changed and became like her just caring about yourself.
I not giving up on you, I cant, I never ever wana lose touch,
I just want the sister I no back cos I am missing you so much.
