nighttime tears kiss the pillow
shaking from sobbing
the pain says hello
i know i messed up
i know you're not proud
but i'm trying my hardest
in this ruthless crowd
i'm trying to be better
for everyone around me
but how can i do that
when you go on a hurting spree
everyone always hurts me to death
i know i'm so sensitive
but it's not like i can change that
maybe just be careful
maybe just have mercy
i think you know i break easily
so why do you have to hurt me?
i know you're just trying to get it in my head
but it's there
it's already there
it's in the tears i shed
i wish that you could learn compassion
and that's not who you are
but i wish you could learn it
you say i'm worth it
you say you love me
but when i'm around you
i feel the opposite
i never asked to be this way
it's just the lessons i have to learn
but that doesn't mean you have to
hit me until it hurts
i'm trying
i'm trying my hardest to make you proud
but i just can't seem to do that
i know you protest against this
but i am in love with him
and you say that it's not love
but it's love to me
so i'm just going to rise above
love is sacrifice in many ways
and i'm willing to sacrifice your trust for him
remember my psychic feelings?
i get them with him
and you may not believe that
but it is the truth
so i'm sorry i'm not the best daughter
but at least i'm happy
