I sit in a corner and cry
Cause no matter how hard I try
I can’t please the people who care
To trust them I don’t dare

Daddy’s mad at me again
No matter what I can’t win
Momma just doesn’t understand
As time slips by the glass’s sand

I need someone big and strong
Whose heart is big and reach is long
To help me make it through today
Who that is I cannot say

I need someone who I can run to
Someone who won’t let them through
These feelings from which I hide
Someone to only take my side

I try so hard that I’m stretched thin
And even then I cannot win
He looks so mad and yells so loud
And all I want is to make him proud

It’ll all blow over in a few days
The sun will shine its brilliant rays
And then it will start again
The only fight I cannot win
