I was two when he left
Mom and I in a house that foreclosed
Left all on our own at 28 and 2
If it wasn't for her dad
I don't know where we would be now
Almost 16 and trying to piece my heart
Together
But that little girl inside me died
When I saw the ring
And maybe I had a stupid hope
That my mom and dad could
Fix the broken pieces and
Get back together
But he's engaged to the woman
He left us for
Two parents two houses
This all feels like a maze
But you're in a forest
With no one to call
Shes taking his last name
The one that I have
Once I'm 18 I'll take my mom's
But it's two parents, two houses
And it all feels like a forest
The wedding date had been set
Looking at venues just feels wrong
When i want my mom to be happy
But men treat her wrong
It feels so weird that most of my friends
Have happy families with lots of kids
And im at my mom's on my own
Everything's breaking away
And maybe I was stupid
For 8 years I thought
They would get back together
But now it isn't so
Maybe what's best for them
Is worse for me
Two parents two houses
This all feels like a maze
But you're in a forest
With no one to call
Shes taking his last name
The one that I have
Once I'm 18 I'll take my mom's
But it's two parents, two houses
And it all feels like a forest
And I've been stuck
Hating my dad and acting nice
Staying on his good side
Trying to be the perfect daughter
Perfect grades and extracurriculars
And im sorry that I failed you
The scars on my thighs
Show the wars my mind has fought
With the voices in my mind
And Im sorry that I can't be
Everything you wanted me to be
The scars are there because of me
Not anyone else it's only me
Two parents two houses
This all feels like a maze
But you're in a forest
With no one to call
Shes taking his last name
The one that I have
Once I'm 18 I'll take my mom's
But it's two parents, two houses
And it all feels like a forest
Oh oh oh
Two parents two houses
Mom's back to her surname
And im sitting here waiting to accept this
The scars are not your fault
They're mine
The scars are the battles that I lost
I'm still in a forest with no way out
I'm stuck here until 18
I'm just stuck here
Mhm
