I painted a picture in my mind
Of a life that was meant for me
It’s haunts me when
I think of it The things I didn’t have
Don’t you see?
The wasteland that you built
The abuse that you gave to me
It made me who I am today
The shadow of someone
How I was meant to be
In my mind I have dreamt
Of many wondrous things
Of smiles and hugs
Laughter and joy
Things that childhood brings
You stole them
You took them from me every day
They weren’t yours
They’re mine
It wasn’t meant this way
Stop it and be man
Stand strong
and listen
See what you did
Tell me you were wrong
