"It's True..."

You don't know the troubles I've known
� And you haven't seen what I've seen...
I've been through so much, still far from grown
� �Really haven't done a damn thing...

So what can you possibly
� See in me?
You must see me as a child
� �Because that's how you treat me...

Yelling chastising and criticizing
� Like nothing
� � I do
� � � Is right

� � � � � � � It's true....

And I'm sorry
� But I can't fight
� � �Like you
� � �
� � � � � � � It's true...

And I feel I might
� � DIE
Because I can never please you...

And it's like
� You don't care what I've been through
� � �And that is finally clear to me...
� � � � It's just a shame that all this love I've for you
� � � � � �Means nothing; that's my reality...

What can you possibly
� Want with me?

I'm dumb
�Have nothing
� �A "junkie"
� � �Just a good for nothing
� � � � Whore
� � � � � Oh, there's more
� � �Let's see
� � � �A failure
� � � � �A drop out
� � � � � �A criminal
� � � � � � �A damn piece of shit!
� � � � � � � �Yes. that's it!
� � � � �That's the reason
� � � � � �You don't love me...

� � � � � � � � It's true, isn't it...

You don't know the troubles I've known
� And you haven't seen what I've seen...
I admit I'm not completely grown
� � But that doesn't make me less then any other human being...
