Mommy and daddy fighting again

When will this pain ever end

I'm in the living room

Silent tears falling down


Later when it's all done

They tell me they were just being dumb.

I tell them I'm alright

But I'm really dying inside


I get to school the next day

Sitting there wishing my life away

They always call me a mean name

Wanting me to feel the shame


I start to walk home all alone

Ignoring my vibrating phone

I hear their footsteps as they follow

Inside I suddenly feel hallow


So I turn around to face them today

Then I get punched in the face

They laugh and laugh and never stop

My head feels like it's going to pop


Yet when I get home on this day

I act like everything is okay

I never think twice of those kids

I have enough problems as it is


I'm in my room once more

With no one to adore

My life is a wreck you see

But I managed to let it be


When you wake up tomorrow morning

Give people a warning

To watch out for ones like me

Who want to be pain free
