It's my birthday and they're arguing again.

I wish i was never born.
I know they try. they try to hide it from me.
But i can tell they're unhappy.
There once was love, but now nothing but sadness and heart break
I know they love me, but it's hard to see through the tears.

They tried so hard to make it work.
they wanted to stay together for "the kids"
But was it worth more heartache and tears?
So many attempts and little success,
finally they called it quits.

Its over. No more heartache and tears
or is that still just a dream?
Why is it that it still comes to this?

Why was I not enough
did i really depress you that much
could you not handle it
or is that your way out?
Did you think i did not need you?

I am 20 now and my heart still aches for that attention that only a mother can give.
My dad does what he can, but he can not do everything.
He's my superman, but what i needed was a superwoman.
A mother I could look up too.
A mother to do my make up and get me ready for prom
A mother to be there for my first heart break
A mother to tell me I was beautiful when the world told me other wise
Did you really think I did not need that, I did not need YOU?
