It's My Birthday

Today's the day
I turn 17.
I've waited so long
to get away from 16.

I expected something better...
But I held strong the rest of the day.
And it wasn't until the pot smell from you
and no call from them
did I break down.

My mother shouldn't have been high.
And my dad should have called.
My boyfriend should have answered that morning.
And my best friend should have answered that night.

I guess I was cut out for being alone,
no matter what day it is.
Maybe This is life for me.
Maybe this is all i can expect....
