Life isn't fair

That's what they said

When my brother got three candies

And I got one instead

Life isn't fair

So I've been told

When I couldn't stay up

Cause I wasn't that old

Life isn't fair

The captains would snip

When I wanted to play

But never got picked

Life isn't fair

My father explained

I cried when I heard

He was moving away

Life isn't fair

He threw me on the bed

I had said no

But he heard a yes

Life isn't fair

I heard heaven say

When at night, all alone

I would cry and pray

Life isn't fair

Laughed the boys in my class

When my last hope at love

Shattered like glass

Life isn't fair

I'm trapped under him

Every night spent here

The touch of unwanted skin

Life isn't fair

She said downing pills

A pain in her heart

She tried to kill

Life isn't fair

She'd heard it for years

If life was fair

She wouldn't be left with these tears

Life isn't fair

She reminded herself

When life dragged her through

Her own living hell

Life isn't fair

At least not for her

She was born and soon taught

The cruelty of the world

Life isn't fair

Said the girl with brown eyes

That phrase she'd been told

was her untimely goodbye
