I tried to escape this prison
Got stuck between unspoken vows
I could hear your voice
Calling out to me
I've missed you, mama.
I've never thanked you enough
Dadda doesn't love me
The way you do
You like it when I'm happy
I've dissapointed you, mama.
Your world is demanding
I don't owe it anything
But I still, I try ,I keep on trying
It's endless but for you mama
My soul a play string they own.
Your hope in me keeps shattering
I have a thing for exaggeration
I've let you down a hundred times
I got up on my own everytime
Have I not made you proud enough, mama?
When I'm scared, I hope you'll come
I know I'm no little girl
But those lullabies still give comfort
I've searched for my whole life
I hope you'll sing them to me, mama.
I should be a porcelain doll
No scratches at all,like a new wall
As white as a dove, calm and peace
Guilt holds the broken pieces, but still
I'll be your perfect daughter mama.
