I felt like the only way to get what i wanted
Was to grow up
Having not realized i already grew up
Kids aged ten hadn't lost a parent
Nor did they know what not to mix with bleach
Some didn't even know how to fry an egg
Let alone make a plate of spaghetti
Or dessert and keep things in line
Paying the bills and nurturing a sick mum
Looking after a younger sibling and keeping him inline
Growing up quickly didn't get me what i wanted
I'm in a bad relationship filled with abuse
I can't seem to leave him
I guess i'm feasting on the affection lost from my dads death
A full time student struggling with a partner that doesn't even feed me
Freezing me to death and treating me like a piece of meat
I deserve better, but i find it so hard to leave
I wonder had i not opened up about child abuse i didn't even tell my parents would he be different
Is he taking advantage and why am i always losing it
Always crying and depressed and getting angry
I grew up quickly, but i still need to grow as a person
Its so much pressure being in this position and how everyone expects me to act
