The empty child

You paid no attention to me.
Acted like I had no value to my name.
It's turning out I'm bigger than you thought.
I'm worth more than you could ever know.
You are my mummy.
But that doesn't mean we're friends.
I may have been inside your tummy.
But I won't fake a smile or pretend that I'm not empty.
You gave no affection to me.
Acted like I was less than your own.
We'refinally coming to a point where you tell the truth.
I'm so much more than you will ever know.
You are my mummy.
But that doesn't mean we're friends.
I may have been inside your tummy.
But I won't fake a smile or pretend that I'm not empty.
You paid no attention to me.
Acted like I had no value to my name.
It's turning out I'm bigger than you thought.
I'm worth more than you could ever know.
You are my mummy.
But that doesn't mean we're friends.
I may have been inside your tummy.
But I won't fake a smile or pretend that I'm not empty.
