Broken

Who is she, where did she come from

She's not who she was before....she's gone numb

You gave me life and then left me for dead

Played with my emotions and messed up my head

treated like the red headed stepchild except I'm first born

supposed to love my little sister but I've always felt torn

Never felt truly accepted

always felt like the outsider being rejected

Things aren't the same, people have changed

Could it just be me and my mind flipped to deranged

I don't see the light, I don't feel the sun

Anger and sadness have replaced my unfiltered fun

My mother is dead and I secretly wish it was my father

I know how that's gotta sound but he helped create this monster

I lost my strength and my tenacity

It destroyed my entire personality like a fatality

What happened to unconditional love and lack of judgement

It's my life and I damn sure didn't hire you as a consultant

All a girl wants is the love of her father

She should never feel like she's a bother

Would it have killed you to pick up the phone when she died

Knowing I needed you to tell me it was ok while I cried

All I got was a text ...sorry for your loss

No big deal right it's just the woman who gave me life.....PAUSE!
