I know I'm not the best
But that's not an excuse
To degrade me and hit me
And make me suffer your abuse

They say I'm growing up
To be just like you
Now, I'm scared of lions and heights
But that's one of my biggest fears, too

You say I'm a bitch, unwanted, rude
But all that stuff is stuff
That reminds me of
You.

I refuse to be like my sister,
Just wanting it all to end.
Because I know when you're gone
My heart will start to mend.

You've given me problems
Anger, anxiety, oversensitivity
But I know one day I'll grow old enough
To escape your captivity
