| Forgive me for the lies I’ve told
|
| I know my story’s getting old
|
| But please just hear me out one last time
|
| Long before I’d popped pills and swam in unpaid bills
|
| There was a time I felt something other than restlessness at night
|
| Mother grabbed me by the hair
|
| Threw me down the stairs
|
| Picked me up and cried
|
| Stayed till I was breathing right
|
| A fucking household prisoner
|
| There were scratches on my neck
|
| Bruises on my arms
|
| Living check to check
|
| Driving broken cars
|
| I gave up counting sheep
|
| Cus I never fucking sleep
|
| Packing my things and I’m moving away
|
| Forget you ever even knew who I was
|
| And when you hear my voice or see my face
|
| I hope it gives a decent taste
|
| Of what it’s like to feel so unloved
|
| I had my first suicidal thoughts when I was 13 years old
|
| Was taken by the idea of an escape
|
| I saw my best friends father beat his mother till she couldn’t walk
|
| He grabbed my head and said you better not talk
|
| Family members die
|
| Choosing different sides
|
| Some I’ll never see
|
| Split my family tree right in half
|
| And you’re okay with that
|
| Packing my things and I’m moving away
|
| Forget you ever even knew who I was
|
| And when you hear my voice or see my face
|
| I hope it gives a decent taste
|
| Of what it’s like to feel so unloved
|
| It’s been a minute since we last spoke
|
| And when you call my phone I think I always choke
|
| There just ain’t a whole lot left for me to say
|
| Looking back now I can say I’m proud
|
| Blending with the crowd
|
| Maybe I’m more human than you’d like to believe
|
| And I’m packing my things and I’m moving away
|
| Forget you ever even knew who I was
|
| And when you hear my voice or see my face
|
| I hope it gives a decent taste
|
| Of what it’s like to feel so unloved |
