Unloved Me

 Early one morning the screams began, I don't know for who,
You or for me, the world came crumbling down
Taking a deep breath, resentment filling your lungs.
Just one look and the umbilical cord was severed
Never wanted, just a tool in your gaslit game

Your excuses were weak, the door was blamed
A little more time for the hatred to fill your soul
A tiny little pawn, a kink in the cogs, life begins
Spreading the evil, your lies, your sins
Not even walking yet I'm already running for life

You dropped the baby and unloved me
Dropped me into the pits of hell
Before I could scream my first scream
You dropped the baby and unloved me

Your resentment grew you already decided
your heart was an altar and I was the sacrifice
No knight in shining armour not even tin foil
Just my replacement you crush me I'm dust
A burden to remind you abort me already

An inkling from neighbours a warning to you
Tighten those strings puppet that toy
Tape up its mouth and make it a game
Bones are broken spirits are crushed
Out with your heart you useless brat

You dropped the baby and unloved me
Dropped me into the pits of hell
Before I could crawl before I could run
You dropped the baby and unloved me

Wandering fingers and turning blind eyes
Separate, isolate, gaslight, and smother
Setting me up for my life to begin
Tearing me down like the Berlin wall
Brick by brick you cheer as it crumbles

Now its my turn to show you the hatred
Opening my mouth and shouting it out
Telling the truths and cutting your tongue out
But it still didn't matter your choices were made
I was the bad guy and you were the saviour

But you dropped the baby and unloved me
Drop to your knees and serve your master
The trauma you caused lives forever
Because you dropped the baby and unloved me

You dropped the baby and unloved me
You taped up my mouth for his pleasure
My pain was your drug your opium cloud
You dropped me unloved me and back I come

You dropped the baby and she landed in pieces
Broken unloved she no longer runs
Inside she screams until the pieces all shatter
I caught the baby and I'm loving me.
