Betrayed (Lyrics)

by Taylor   Mar 4, 2011


(verse)
I guess 27 years was not enough for you
I don't know what hurts worse
What you did or being lied to
By my own mother
Now look at my brother
He's crying to our father
Remember me? I'm your daughter

(pre chorus)
But who are you?
A monster
Get out of my room
Don't bother

(chorus)
How could you think it'd be okay
Bending the rules against our name?
Do you tell yourself that it's alright
To get yourself to sleep at night?
The tears in my eyes are nothing new
And you know they're all because of you
Maybe if you just stayed loyal to this household
We'd love you too

(verse)
The temptation must've been too overwhelming
When I asked you who he was, you wouldn't tell me
When you look in the mirror, what do you see?
Perfection or a ruined family?
I used to look at you as a hero
But now all I want is for you to go
Go away

(chorus)

(bridge)
Sign all the papers with your lies
Disguise the bullshit seething in your eyes
Mommy I used to trust you
Now I'm through
You betrayed my father at your own cost
Now the love of your family you have lost
It's all your fault, you should have known
So good luck being on your own

(chorus)

(talking)
Mom, how could you not see this coming?
What were you thinking?
He's my not effing father
I will never have another father
Ugh, I can't believe you
I can't even stand to look at you
I'm done, I'll never trust you again
You've ruined my life
Thank you
