See I would rather we just go our different way,
Than play the game.
See I would rather we just go our different way,
Than play the game.
I don't know if I can yell any louder,
How many time have I kicked you outta here?
Or said something insulting? da da da da-da
I can be so mean when I wanna be
I am capable of really anything
I can cut you into pieces
But my heart is... broken.
I ran away today, ran from the noise, ran away.
Don't wanna go back to that place, but don't have no choice, no way,
It ain't easy growin' up in World War III ,
Never knowin' what love could be, well I've seen.
I don't want love to destroy me like it did my family.
Mom will be nicer.
I'll be so much better, I'll tell my brother...
Oh, I won't spill the milk at dinner.
I'll be so much better, I'll do everything right.
I'll be your little girl forever.
I'll go to sleep at night.
You fight about money, 'bout me and my brother.
And this I come home to, this is my shelter.
It ain't easy growing up in World War III,
Never knowing what love could be, you'll see.
I don't want love to destroy me like it has done my family.
How did I become so obnoxious?
What is it with you that makes me act like this?
I've never been this nasty
Can't you tell that this is all just a contest?
The one that wins will be the one that hits the hardest
But baby I don't mean it
I mean it, I promise.
I forgot to say out loud how beautiful you really are to me
I can't be without, you're my perfect little punching bag!
And I need you, I'm sorry!
Please, please don't leave me.
In our family portrait we look pretty happy.
Can we work it out? Can we be a family?
Let's play pretend, act like it goes naturally.
I promise I'll be better, Mommy I'll do anything.
