I don't even remember,
the times I used to cry
All that I can remember,
was redness in my eyes
I keep on laughling,
like the light is all I see,
when deep down inside,
I'm tired of being me
I wrote you a letter,
telling you I was done with my life
Ready to run away from the stress and pain,
cause every word you said hit like a knife.
My sincere apologies dear,
I thought this was what you wanted to hear.
Your shallow heart asked for a deeper sea,
And what you wanted was too low for me
Do you recall the times I sat in my room,
Shedding red pain, going insane
Waiting for you to save my soul
I asked for flowers, you gave me coal.
I always ask, when will it all be okay.
There's was no guarantee, you left me stray.
All I need, is a promise from you
One day you'll treat me like someone you knew.
I am your child, please give me a sign.
For I'm not your father, but you are mine.
