What they dont tell you as a child
What they don't tell you as a child...
Its funny how it all played out,
see as a child she told you that it was all going to be ok
That nobody would ever hurt you
Its crazy how she reminded you everyday that she “loved you bunches” but never showed it
It’s heartbreaking that she allowed that sick man to crawl in bed with you and do unthinkable things to her “babygirl”
Its funny how she never once told you it was wrong or stopped his sick hands from sliding down your innocent body
Oh the things that happened all those years ago
Its crazy how she never told you that while you were scared to death because of that man doing disgusting things to you in your bed that she was in the other room smoking her worries away
It's crazy how she never told you that when you grew up you would go places but you did
And it's hilarious how she never told you that now she would be the one scared to death about what her next boyfriend might do to her
Hmm its funny how that all played out…
