My Life, Everyday
To Thee, My Dear Mother.
I sit behind my fears, my addictions,
Only to put up a face, a front.
I don't know how to tell it anymore,
I can't help but be that blunt.
I can't be who you want anymore,
It's something I just can not do.
It's twisting me up inside,
And on the outside too.
I've put up with all your games,
Fighting only in my shame.
I carry it all inside of me,
Can't decide on who's to blame.
You made me ashamed of everything about me,
You always put me in that place.
I think it's time for the roles to change,
So now i'll shove it in YOUR face.
I'm not sorry that i'm not the perfect daughter,
I'm just sorry I took your shit.
Where it straight, where it down,
Don't be skinny, just work for fit.
But when I start to let it go,
You just have to chime in.
Cause not respecting thy dear Mother,
Baby, it's a sin.
