This Always Happens
So you claim
"Everything I do is for you"
Then why is it anytime I speak
Anytime I disagree
You yell and blatantly call me a bitch
You hit me and later deny it
All that’s for me is it?
I bet that’s why I used to be so scared
That is why my voice falters when I yell
Everything you do is for me.
You claim you wouldn’t be here.
I know you’re not that strong
You need to be here since this is where your connections are
If you ran away home you’d notice those you abandoned have forgotten about you
I might be all you have
You use that fact to guilt me
You make me cry and break more than anyone else
You have that awful power
I wouldn’t deny it
Everything you do is for me.
