This song reminds me of how my mom treated me growing up - And that's not saying anything good.
Boyce Avenue - Broken Angel
Shoulda wanted the best for you
but I'm afraid your best wasn't good enough
And no he never wanted you
at least not the way you wanted yourself to be loved
and you feel like you were a mistake
he's not worth all those tears
they won't go away
I wish you can see that
so you try to impress him
but he never will listen
oh broken angel
were you sad when he crushed all your dreams?
Oh broken angel
inside you're dying 'cause you can't believe
Oh you can't believe
And now you've grown up
with this notion that you were to blame
And you seem so strong sometimes
but I know that you still feel the same
As a little girl, you shined like an angel
even after his lazy heart put you through hell
I wish you could see that
still you try to impress him
but he never would listen
oh broken angel
were you sad when he crushed all your dreams?
oh broken angel
inside you're dying 'cause you can't believe
he would leave you alone
and leave you so cold
when you were his daughter
But the blood in your veins as you carry his name turns thinner than water
You're just a broken angel
oh angel
You're just a broken angel
oh angel
And I promise that it's not your fault
it was never your fault
And I promise that it's not your fault
it was never your fault
oh broken angel
were you sad when he crushed all your dreams?
oh broken angel
inside you're dying 'cause you can't believe
he would leave you alone
and leave you so cold
when you were his daughter
but the blood in your veins as you carry his name turns thinner than water
Oh, he would leave you alone
and leave you so cold
when you were his daughter
but the blood in your veins as you carry his name turns thinner than water
you're just a broken angel
oh angel
you're just a broken angel
oh angel
and I promise that it's not your fault
it was never your fault
and I promise that it's not your fault
it was never your fault
and I promise that it's not your fault
it was never your fault
