I'm never told that I am pretty I'm never told that I am kind And my soul burns now with fire Deep inside
I want to become brave and courageous Not buried in self-pity of my own Ashamed and alone from all That's been done to me It's not my fault I remind myself
You say you don't be afraid But I feel afraid You say you don't laugh or cry But I show emotion You say food will be on the table And birds in the sky But I'm hungry So hungry And it's cloudy outside
You never loved me like a daughter You never even loved yourself And now you treat me like a burden Just another object on your shelf
I want you to know that I love you And this pain that I carry's not my own Ashamed and alone From all that's been done to you It's not your fault I remind myself
No matter what I've done Or is done to me Nothing unforgivable Or unable to be set free
