| One and the other, willing to fight Over who's wrong, it's sad and not right "Please bring up your grades." "You shouldn't wear that." "Will you take medication?" "Of course you're not fat!" Mom doesn't want me to fall in love Dad needs to see I want guidance from above All I hear is: "Her grades are fine, dear..." "That shirt looks just right!" "Our child is not crazy!" "Well, her stomach's not tight!" I used to think, "The honest truth is You both should go and mind your business" Well, they listened... "She's failing again." "You're right about that." "Her clothes...she's suspended!" "Is that a fact?" "Well, back to the doctor..." "For more pills? That's good!" "And she looks a lot thinner - " "I knew that she would..." Yeah, I got what I wanted, not what children need A lack of support from the creators of me Nothing mentally, physically, socially too And no more hearing "I love you" I hate to say I'm a failure in life But with my told story, I can't take the strife - Jacqueline Audrey |
