My street

Dannie_51715

You live so close, but don't give a care
So you just stay over there being miserable, never talking to me
You're my parents, you're supposed to be there.
But you aren't and don't care if I become all I can be.

If I were to ask you right here and now
To be a loving parent and apologize for how you've treated me
Would you accept me? I bet you wouldn't... Wow
I don't know why I still try, mom. I don't know how you look at yourself. Do you see?

I can't believe no matter what I do, I'll still be a part of you
I'll always hate that about myself
Don't you see, you're wrong in all that you do?
I won't ever forget how you left me to starve, while your tax returns brought you wealth.

When I have children, I'll treat them right
I won't ever hurt them like you hurt us
I won't ever let them see him and I fight
If you come around to try and see, I'll put you on a bus.

You won't see my babies
You won't see me succeed
You lost your chance
When you chose drugs over me

You can begin to try,
But after tonight, if I don't hear from you
I'll probably cry
But you'll do what you always do

You'll sit there at home
Not caring about my feelings
All alone
With my shattered heart on the ground

My friends won't hurt me, unlike you
You both disgust me to the core
Can't you see what you do?
You sleep every night next to a whore

My father is crude
My mother isn't well
He is rude
And she needs to go to hell

She is killing him and me
She is ruining my innocence
She is hurting how I feel inside 
And he is letting her. 

They're worthless
They're nothing but dead meat
They can go screw themselves for all I care
Unless tonight, they come to my street
