mistreated
I know you've been stressed lately
and just needed to vent it out
but can you not be so hard on me?
I think of the time in the past
now I can't believe
we were so close like a perfect family
but now, things have changed
now we barely talk
i try to distract myself
and the thoughts won't go away
every time I close my eyes I see your face
but it's not bright with smiles like the past
now all that I see is an angry frown
reminding how far we've grown
from smiling at the thought of you to crying
and now I can barely sleep
cause all I hear is you shouting at me
what happened to the perfect family
we once dreamt of?!
you've drowned yourself trying
to keep me floating above
you've given everything I ever wanted
yeah everything but love
I know the burden is hurting you
but there's nothing I can do
and I'm sorry for that
I'm if I was ever a burden
but please don't shout at me
I can barely sleep without crying
I've never told how much it's hurting
but it kills you from inside to see your own mom
blaming you for everything that's happening
when it was never my fault
