All my life
I've never been
1st place
Or anything great

At least
Not to you
But your son
He could do no wrong

But me...
Everything I did
There was fault
To be found

It wasnt what you wanted
It wasnt what you expected
Of a girl
Not your girl

Nothing I did was enough
Nor was it ever worthy
Of your attention
Or your praise

I dont even know
Why I kept trying
So damn hard
All these years

To get you to love me
And care about me
Just like your son
When you cast me aside everytime

It hurts to know
How childish you can be
When you dont get your way
So far as to be so damn obvious

About your love for your son
Send him all he asks for
But happened to remember
To send me a card

I dont love you like I used to
You're not the Knight
I waited so long for
To come and rescue me

Cause not even the worst Knight
Would cast aside his own child
And never think of her
Acting like she never was born

You sir
Have dug your grave
With me
All because you chose

To cast me aside
So early in my life
Leaving me to wonder
Did you ever care?

Dont call me
Anymore
I'm done
With your games

Because now
It's your turn
To know how it feels
To be cast aside
