Changes

I'm not the perfect daughter
Far from it
And I don't always make it easy
For you to settle in

But don't you go around
blaming me for all that's wrong
'Cause I'm not the only one
who doesn't try hard enough

No, you're not perfect either
And I know you never wanted this
And you didn't expect it either
But now we're here

So, for god's sake, just try
Try being a mother
Try accepting me the way I am
Please show me more affection

'Cause I wanna love you
I really do
But if we both don't change
I'll never be that loving girl
That you want me to be
Instead of this resentful, aggressive girl
That I am

Nobody

Nobody
Seems to really care
How much longer
She can bare.

Nobody knows
How she's lost hope
And how she's
Struggling to cope.

Nobody sees
The damage she's done
To herself
Waiting to be gone.

Nobody hears
Her crying at night
Praying
To finally reach the Light.
