Your constant nagging,
Is really all i hear.
Nothing is ever good enough,
Now it's you I've grown to fear.
Even if i succeed,
I could of done one better.
If for once I'm happy,
There must be a reason.
And when I'm always down,
You blame it on all else,
Everything else but you,
Or us and this 'happy family'.
I smile although I'm broken,
I laugh although I'm shattered.
What ever can i do,
To hear a nice word from you?
Or am i really that low,
You just don't want to see?
I try so hard to get a smile,
For if ever you're proud,
If lifts me up so high.
You know i love you,
It's literally impossible not to,
But if for once you could maybe,
Look upon me as your daughter?
