On my Own
May 19, 2015
No I am not a parent, no I am not an adult, I am your sister
Scared, alone, too young to understand, sought out after love and affection
A connection we’ve built, a friendship we made
Ups and Downs, tilting the seesaw, in the end sand never runs out
Old and young, I can’t leave you, but I won’t stay
Do I stick it out, wait for my chance?
If I leave, I will still regret it all
Scared, alone, too vulnerable to decide, I promise your future will be bright
