Be nice to everyone, always smile and appreciate things because it could all be gone tomorrow.


When things weren’t going so well
Mom and dad would start to yell

I would use my hands to cover my ears
I don’t know why but it gave me nothing to fear

When mom and dad were no longer happy
Life soon turned very crappy

Then mom and dad began to separate
Dad said something like “it was fate”

Those words didn’t seem to make things better
When mom came home with a man dressed in leather

The day dad left
Life put me to the test

I wish I cried
Even though I tried

I was filled with guilt
That nothing painful ever built

Now im here trying to cherish the token
But no matter what my family will always be broken
