Why do you hurt me?

by Amanda   Nov 18, 2005


You turned my family against me,
they always scream and shout,
Whenever you turn the taps on,
They always want me out,

You are taking over my life,
You have ruined all i had,
You tried to say you cared,
You pretended to be my dad,

I will refuse to accept you,
even though i am being nice,
I am doing it for my family,
Listen good to my advice,

My world has been shook up,
I am confused and feeling mad,
My family always noticed,
When i used to feel so sad,

Now they just ignore me,
and focus straight on you,
You thrive off the attention,
but i am hurting too,

When we fall out sometimes,
you make me feel so bad,
You always threaten suicide,
I always feel so guilty and sad,

Last night we had an argument,
You said you were feeling blue,
I bit my tongue and said sorry,
I said i would help you through

You try so hard to come between,
Me and my family every day,
but who is always there for you,
who wipes your tears away???

It is me that is always there for our lodger when he is depressed but my family just blame me for everything wrong that goes off. I am finding that 3 is a crowd in my house but nobody will listen that i need some space. Me and my mum never get any time alone at all so we are drifting apart.
