Mommy. Mommy.
Why did you leave me?
Mommy. Mommy.
Why didn't you want me?

You left me here all alone.
In this big cruel world.
You left me all alone.
I was just a baby you know.

Why didn't you take me with you?
Why did you leave me behind?
Didn't you care about me?
Did you not want me all this time?

You left without me.
Without even a picture of us two.
I wasn't even ten months old.
You became an angel and flew.
Don't you know I've always wanted to fly,
To go some place and hide?

That night, you knew it was your last.
Why couldn't you at least take a picture with me?
At least prove that you loved me?
For the past thirteen years, I couldn't even say the word mom.

Mommy. Mommy.
You left me all alone.
I was just a baby girl.
All this time I've been mad at you.
I hated you, you know.
But now that I've accepted you left me,
I can't help but cry for you.

Mommy. Mommy.
I wish I knew you.
I wish I could've made you proud.
But I'm not happy.
Nor am I smart, pretty, or skinny.
You would've just been disappointed in me.

You would've hated me like I hate myself.
I can do no good.
I can only cause harm.
Mommy. Mommy.
You left me all alone.
Oh I wish you would've let me tag along.
