Undone

This is simple and quick. Pink said it best when she wrote Family Portrait or whom ever wrote it. It’s a nice song. I take it to heart, especially tonight

Momma 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 III

Never knowin what love could be, you’ll see

I don’t want love to destroy me like it has done

my family

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, cuz 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 III

Never knowin what love could be, well I’ve seen

I don’t want love to destroy me like it did my

family

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, let’s act like it comes

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

(Can we work it out? Can we be a family?)

We look pretty normal, let’s go back to that

(I promise I’ll be better, Mommy I’ll do

anything)

In our family portrait we look pretty happy

(Can we work it out? Can we be a family?)

Let’s play pretend act and like it comes so

naturally

(I promise I’ll be better, Daddy please don’t

leave)

In our family portrait we look pretty happy

(Can we work it out? Can we be a family?)

We look pretty normal, let’s go back to that

(I promise I’ll be better, Daddy please don’t

leave)

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 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

I want my family to pretend once in a while.

It’s

a

VERY VERY VERY

stress

filled

week
