Family Portrait- Pink

Momma please stop cryin, I can't stand the sound
Your pain is painful and its tearin' me down
I hear glasses breakin as I sit up in my bed
I told dad you didn't mean those nasty things you said

You fight about money, bout me and my brother
And this I come home to, this is my shelter
It ain't easy growin up in World War III
Never knowin what love could be, you'll see
I don't want love to destroy me like it has done
my family

Can we work it out? Can we be a family?
I promise I'll be better, Mommy I'll do anything
Can we work it out? Can we be a family?
I promise I'll be better, Daddy please don'tleave

Daddy please stop yellin, I can't stand the sound
Make mama stop cryin, cuz I need you around
My mama she loves you, no matter what she says its true
I know that she hurts you, but remember
I love you too

I ran away today, ran from the noise, ran away
Don't wanna go back to that place, but don't have
no choice, no way

It ain't easy growin up in World War III
Never knowin what love could be, well I've seen
I don't want love to destroy me like it did my family

Can we work it out? Can we be a family?
I promise I'll be better, Mommy I'll do anything
Can we work it out? Can we be a family?
I promise I'll be better, Daddy please don't leave

In our family portrait, we look pretty happy
Let's play pretend, let's act like it comesnaturally
I don't wanna have to split the holidays
I don't want two addresses
I don't want a step-brother anyways
And I don't want my mom to have to change her
last name

In our family portrait we look pretty happy
We look pretty normal, let's go back to that
In our family portrait we look pretty happy
Let's play pretend, act like it goes naturally..

Daddy don't leave
Turn around please
Remember that the night you left you took my shining star?
Daddy don't leave
Don't leave us here alone

Mom will be nicer
I'll be so much better, I'll tell my brother
Oh, I won't spill the milk at dinner
I'll be so much better, I'll do everything right
I'll be your little girl forever
I'll go to sleep at night


**Although this song exaggerates it a bit.. strangely, i find myself relating to the lyrics..

Things are gonna get better..

Sometimes things don't work between people. Sometimes things are hard. Hard to see. Hard to live with.

Sometimes we spent a lot of time and effort trying to repair something which is broken; all the time, not realising, that this is the way it is. It cannot be fixed; but can we accept it for what it is or do we walk away?

-hugs-
I hope the situation improves, and whatever resolution needs to happen to make things good, happens.
