 | Five sisters, one brother,
And a mother longing for the drunk who killed her...
Knocked her down...they all knocked her down
Before she could stand for what she stood.
It wasn't her fault...
That she was the daughter of the only guy to "stick around"
She's made honor roll,
She's dropped out of high school,
She's fallen in love a few times, or at least her mind told her so,
She's been high, she's stayed sober,
She's thought of death randomly,
Religion doesn't provide much hope for eternity,
She's watched suicide on the top of a school lunch table.
High school is like Darwin,
She screwed someone to get a taste of love,
Wondered what it would be like to have a family,
Something to call her own.
She got pregnant at 16, left home from there,
Alone baby’s daddy ran, never saw him again.
She got married because of pressure,
She's cheated for lust; she’s lied for a night out,
She's given all she had and...
He played mind games, hit her just a "few" times,
Said I'm sorry about a million, and
He owes that much in things he's broken....
She needs a change spontaneously,
Finds something wrong with her figure or her image,
Dyes her hair and paints her nails
If the color is f*cked up, at least that's all.
But the next day while doing her hair,
She holds in the tears so no one can see
Her mascara will run, and then she will run late,
He sits, he stares, never says word,
She's in her room or gone out for her to wonder where,
He's throwing sh*t through out the house, just like his father...
And she's having a breakdown~
