Hearing through such young ears
That nobody wanted me
Nobody loved me
I was unwanted.
Then hearing as a young adult
How lucky I was
How grateful I should be
How still nobody would want me
How nobody would love me.
Then as an adult
Hearing how ungrateful I am
For people that gave up everything
For a child they didn’t even want.
All the things I’ve heard
Felt in my heart must have been true
When you said them
The second they came out of your mouth
They were a lie.
