It's Just Us

Emotionally.

Dear Mom,

All this depression i feel it inside,

But all you ever do is say,

"I always lie"

But mom I feel it deep in my soul,

I promise that you do not feel like home,

I need a person to pick me up off the dirt,

Because kicking me down screaming,

"Mom! I'm hurt!"

But you don't listen,

All you can hear is me,

And all I'm missin,

Mom tell me why,

Why you gotta hit me?

You don't gotta be physical mom,

You really can't see.

It ain't bruises people can see on my body,

Mom it's bruises I bury deep,

Deep inside me.

Tell me this pain is just a reaction,

A torture hall for me to just lie in,

I don't wanna be cryin,

Every night like I do,

But if I screamed and I really,

Really told you?

Would call me dramatic,

Would you say,

I'm overreacting?

Mom you play me like some card game,

Mom I swear to you,

I got a name!

You keep callin me names,

But you forget,

This life,

It,

It ain't a game.

Mom, why you gotta hurt me so?

Mom tell me,

Why can't you just let us go?

Cause mom, I promise you,

I'm slowly dying; you,

Mom,

I need you to believe in me,

Cause mom you're hurtin me,

And you're doin it,

Emotionally.
