You where never home

Where are you tonight mum?
Because you're not at home
Why are you always leaving me?
Here on my own

I use to hate it you know
Always asked you to stay
Because if I didn't
You'd be out everyday

Haven't you ever noticed?
I don't complain anymore
Every time you go out
Through that front door

Its because theres no point
You just don't care
Don't you think it affects me?
You never being there?

But you wouldn't think of that would you?
You only care about yourself
Ive got no one to turn too
When I'm in need of help

People wouldn't think
That you're a mother
Not when they only see you out
When you're with your lover

Well since you don't know me anymore
There are some things Id like to say
The reason I'm always in my room
Is because I cry there everyday

Bet you don't think I'd cut myself
You think I'd just go cry instead
Well take a look mum
At all the slashes on my leg

You think I never smile
Ever thought to wonder why
Has it never crossed your mind?
That I'm hurting inside

Well its OK mum
Cause I'll leave this home one day
I'll pack up all my things
And just run far away

And I'll never look back!
I'll learn to make it on my own
And it will all be because
You where never home
