Loved You Just The Same

For years you made me wish that I had never told
I didn't think your reaction would be so cold
I had been trying to tell you for so so long
Then I felt that by telling I had done something wrong 
It was never my plan to cause you any pain
The things dad would do was driving me insane
I never dreamed that telling would just make things worse
I decided it was me I must be the curse
My once loving mother now looked at me with hate
I was destined to live in hell that was my fate
Even though you thought I was the one to blame
I hope you know I always loved you just the same
