Carrying memories
Bitter words, bouncing off the walls
Crashing, Lashing out
I Hear your insults, I Hear your screaming
I get it, You’re disappointed
I’m not the daughter you said I was meant to be
I’ve wandered off, Made my own self.
One better carved then the one I started out
And I did by myself.
I don’t owe you a smile, I don’t owe you a laugh
I don’t owe you one sided respect
How could someone who’s supposed to love you through it all,
Make you feel so small?
Why are the words you think are harmless, Drilling themselves into my skull-
Telling me I’m not enough?
Hang up my spite, my pride on the wall
To you, I’m a lie.
To you, I’m your incapable little girl
To you, I’m a burden in your home
I’m only what you make me out to be
Your voice is the only one that matters, Right?
I get it, You’re disappointed
I’m not the daughter you thought you had
Yet what gives you the right to belittle me?
It’s deranged you think what makes me happy is to upset you.
To me, My feelings are valid
To me, You’re ripping apart your chances
The day I can, The day I’m away
I’ll watch our bridges burn and decay.
At Least you’ll remember the good times right?
At Least you’ll remember how much you loved me, Right?
I’ll carry the memories of your lies.
