one sided

You feel the guilt 

Of wanting to live your life

Putting it on us

Maybe so you can feel alright

 

Throwing in our faces

That you didn't have to 

Take us in and raise us

Not telling, but yelling

About how much you sacrifice

But that's a choice you made

And blaming us for that

Is just cruel, it's not right

 

I know damn well

That you know the difference

Between what's wrong

And what is right

So why do you always

Bring that up

In the middle of a fight

 

We didn't have a choice, you do

And you know that

But you still hold us to blame

For god's sake,

I was only 2!

 

You decided our future 

Before we ever could

Made me hate the man

Who made me

Because you know you could

Now i know it was

Only because you hated him

 

He took your daughter

And ruined her

But is that true?

You told me lies about him

And i believed you

 

everything has to go your way

Because if they don't,

What? The world might sway?

You don't like the fact

That you're not the only one who has a say?
