Mamma please stop cryin, I can't stand the sound
Your pain is painful and its tearin' me down
I hear glasses breakin' as I sit up in my bed
I told dad you didn't mean those nasty things you said
You fight about money, 'bout me and my brother
And this I come home to, this is my shelter
It ain't easy growin up in World War Three
Never knowin' what love could be, you'll see
I don't want love to destroy me like it has done my family
(chorus)
Can we work it out? Can we be a family?
I promise I'll be better, Mommy I'll do anything
Can we work it out? Can we be a family?
I promise I'll be better, Daddy please don't leave
Daddy please stop yellin, I can't stand the sound
Make mama stop cryin', 'cause i need you around
My mama she loves you, no matter what she says its true
I know that she hurts you, but remember:- I love you too !
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 Three
Never knowin what love could be, I've seen
I don't want love to destroy me like it did my family
(chorus)
Can we work it out? Can we be a family?
I promise I'll be better, Mommy I'll do anything
Can we work it out? Can we be a family?
I promise I'll be better, Daddy please don't leave
In our family portrait, we look pretty happy
Let's play pretend, act like it goes naturally
I don't wanna have to split the holidays
I don't want two addresses
I don't want a step-brother anyways
And I don't want my mom to have to change her last name.
In our family portrait we look pretty happy
We look pretty normal, let's go back to that
In our family portrait we look pretty happy
Let's play pretend, act like it goes naturally
In our family portrait we look pretty happy
We look pretty normal, let's go back to that
In our family portrait we look pretty happy
Let's play pretend act and like it comes so naturally
In our family portrait we look pretty happy
We look pretty normal, let's go back to that
Daddy don't leave
Daddy don't leave
Daddy don't leave
Turn around please
Remember that the night you left, you took my shining star
Daddy don't leave
Daddy don't leave
Daddy don't leave
Don't leave us here alone
Mom, I'll 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
~ ces paroles là me foutent les boules, bah c'est pas vraiment ce qui s'est passé mais en gros ouai, donc j'ai perdu ma famille initiale (biologique) mais à la place j'ai trouvé ma vraie famille... celle qui a toujours été là quand j'allais pas bien, celle qui a toujours été là quand j'en avais besoin,... celle qui m'a toujours aidé et encore je te remercie, je vous remercie du plus profond de mon coeur... Un grand MERCI à Lindsay, jay, coyote... voilà ma vraie famille, mon pilon central... voilà ceux que je n'oublierais jamais et que j'aurais jamais fini de remercier. Merci encore, à demain... ~
