Tell me when in going to know that someone is there by my side...
That in the end i dont have to hide
That in the night i dont have to cry
My parents blackened my eyes and then apologized
as love and pain became one in the same in the eyes of a wounded child
I just thought that hell was for children
But as i grew up i started to find out that i shouldnt of had to pay for there love with my bones and flesh
So ya i thought hell was for children
I still have never understood why
Or how a mother could do that to their child
But when you have a mother that lacks all love
Then in the end a child just dies inside
As i did that day
That they took my sisters and me away
You hurt me alot and that is true
But i still loved you...
