You burst into my room

And just start to yell

You say im good for nothing

You say i can go to hell

You dont say it out loud at first

But your face says it all

But when people ask about our home life...

You say nothing is wrong.

I cant do anything good enough for you

I cant do anything right.

You try to make me just like you

But then tell me to be myself

Everytime i try to be me

Again you start to yell.

I am embarrassed of what my life is,

I always have to lie

So that nothing goes wrong at home

So nothing is wrong tonight.

You say you are sick of dad leaving us

And crawling back for love,

But every time he starts to talk shit

You do nothing to make him stop.

I've lost myself in all my lies,

I try to remember what it was like

I try to remember when you still loved me...

When everything was alright.

But even now I know

My hope filled dream

That nothing is wrong anymore.
