Mama please stop crying
I can't stand the sound
Your pain is painful and it's tearing me down
I hear glasses breaking as I sit up in my bed
I told god you didn't mean those nasty things you said
You fight about money about me and my bro-ther
And this I come home to this is my shelter
It ain't easy growin up in world war three
never knowing what love could be you see,
I don't wanna 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(I promise)
Mommy I'll do anything(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
Daddy please stop yelling
I can't stand the sound
Make mama stop crying 'cause I need you around
My mama she loves you no matter what she says
it's 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 tree
Never know what love could be, I've seen
I don't wanna love to destroy me like it did my family
Can we work it out( can we work it out)
Can we be a family
I promise I'll be better (I'll promise I'll do anything)
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 just like it comes naturally
I don't wanna have 2 split the holidays
I don't want 2 adresses. I don't want a stepbrother anyway
And I don't want my mom 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 like it goes naturally
In our family portrait we look pretty happy
We look pretty normal let's go back to that
Daddy don't leave
Turn around please..
You took my shining star
Daddy don't leave
Mama be nicer I'll be so much better
I'll tell my brother 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
