Mom, Dad, I Know You're Getting A Divorce And Eachother You Loath
I'm Your Child And In My Heart There Is Room For You Both
Please Stop Saying Bad Things To Me, Stop Trying To Make Me Choose Sides
Please Keep Your Anger And Negativity To Yourselves, I Want Off This Roller Coaster Ride
Don't Say Mean Things To Me About Eachother Or Try To Convinve Me You Love Me More
When You Do That You Shred My Self Esteem And Throw It On The Floor
Your Words Run Through My Mind Over And Over Again
Covincing Me That I'm As Insignifigant To You As A Single Grain Of Sand
You Don't Know The Pain And Lonlyness You Make Me Feel, You Don't See My Tears
When You Scream And Yell And Hit Eachother You Don't Feel My Fears
You Both Stopped Caring About Whats Going On Inside OF Me
You Just Want To Inflict Pain, I Love You, But You've Both Become The Enemy
Dad Says All You Want Is Money Mom, Thats Why You Want Custody Of Me
Mom Says You Don't Care About Anything Dad,But With How Many Women You Can Sleep
You Both Tear Into Me Like Two Angry Dogs Fighting Over A Piece Of Meat
And When You Both Finally Move On, I'm The One Left Layin Here Broken And Bleeding
My Spirit Dammaged Beyond Repair, Unworthy Of Love From My Very Own Parents
My Self Esteem Totally Gone, My Heart Broken, Bitter , And Barren
Unable To Feel Happy Or Normal Ever Again Because Inside I Know I Don't Measure Up
I'm Just A Broken Child, One Who Knows That She Didn't Even Have Her Own Parents
Love
