Your Greatest Sin
Please don’t bother
Is what I have learned
Nineteen years
I now feel burned
He will never see
That he did this himself
He will always find blame
In someone else
So easy to do
To not take the blame
Pass it off
At this point, so lame
I’m angry right now
After we last spoke
Take ownership
It’s not a joke
How long can you go
Doing all that you do
You think you hurt no one
The joke is on you
I’m hurting right now
One day you will see
All that you’ve done
What you’ve taken from me
You’ve taken the love
That I could one day share
To both of your sisters
Who are still there
There for me
As you have not been
This I do know
Is your greatest sin
And still all my focus
Is right back on you
I wish life were better
But what can I do
You’re laughing and thinking
It’s not a big deal
Reality is
The pain that I feel
The child I knew
Is no longer there
At what point in life
Do you say you don’t care?
