 Help Yourself
Being away from you has finally opened her up
She's letting her feelings go and no longer holds them shut
She is now telling you the way she feels inside
The feelings of hopelessness and why she wanted to die
She's letting it all go because she is no longer scared
She's trying to figure out if you ever really cared
She writes all about the drugs you did that not only messed up your life
How much it hurts us too and why we would always cry
She writes about the tears that you caused to fall
How when you would get angry you'd throw mom against the wall
The nights you were never there, but instead getting high
You were never there for mom when she needed you by her side
When we wanted to talk to you, you didn't seem to care
But it really wouldn't matter because you were never there
She used to be your little girl and she used to look up to you
But now she's ashamed because of all the bad things you do
It has affected her in such a strong way
By seeing what you've been through has helped her change
She's not a little girl anymore and she's beginning to see it through
She no longer knows who you are, she can no longer trust in you
She used to be scared of you but through time she has gained her strength
She no longer holds her feelings inside, she says what she really thinks
We tried talking to you, to help you make a change
But no matter how hard we would try, you'd make the same mistake
She loves you dad with all her heart but she has really seen it through
You have to get the help yourself, we can no longer help you
