Stop

My life begun
That faithful day
Everyone was there
On the last day of May

I slowly began to love
The people who were around
My brothers, parents, Nana and Pa
They could always, always be found

My brothers taught me how to do things
That most girls wouldn't try
Like play AFL and roller blade
And punch so hard that they cried

No matter what I said I wanted to do
My parents were always there
They taught me right from wrong
And that it's OK to sometimes be scared

Nana would always spoil us
And pick us up after school
She would go out and play catch with me
Which made her the coolest Nana I knew

Pa Bob would teach me the names
Of birds, trees and animals I didn't know
He always went on walks with me
And we become closer as I grow

But my brothers are fighting
One has already left
They don’t play with me anymore
I feel like a victim of theft

My parents have split up
And I don’t really care
But I’m starting to realise
That my father has never been there

Nana has started to turn evil
She fights with mum so much
I wish she hadn’t changed
She making our lives so tough

Pa Bob is still the same
But he can’t go walking anymore
I’m scared he’s going to die soon
And I will have to close his door

I wish they’d stayed the same
I wish they’d never changed
I want there to be there for me again
I wish things didn’t feel so strange
