Broken homes like the rest

Look around you tell me what you see
nothing but lies,in every family
no ones happy as they seem
hiding behind the walls
as you watch everyone falls

Danielle's mommy loves her
but her father doesn't care
left when she was little
its still hard to bare
as her mom struggles to make it right
Danielle cries in the middle of the night
wondering how he could leave them like this
left her family without even a goodbye kiss

johnny's dad drinks till he cant feel anymore
as he beats Johnny's till he cant move no more
as for his mom well she's in a better place
heaven came and took her without a trace
and johnny cries wishing he were there
mom was the only one who really cared

and over here is wonderful Danice
perfect in everyone else's eyes
but thats just a disguise
as she tries to hide
all the pain buried deep inside
as she listens to her parents fight
she just wishes everything would be alright
but it never gets better
as she hides the scars under her sweater

mixed emotions everywhere
families struggle without a care
as hate runs thought the air
wondering why its just not fair
as every kid sits home in tears
wishing their life was like their peers

but little do they know
everyone struggles the same
life just seems like one big game
as you sit home and scream and shout
as you try and find a way out
