Friends who became family

Sometimes it is tough
To even get out of bed
Because days can be so tough
And you don't want to see what's ahead

You don't want to bother to try
To go through a day
Because alls you want to do is cry
When you tell people you're OK

And sometimes its hard
To stay in with this fight
You're playing the last card
And ready to fold tonight

Growing up in this home
Gave me so many issues
To feeling completely alone
To constantly using up tissues

People walk away from me
does anybody truly care?
My friends do clearly
But i don't have family to be there...

It makes me wonder
Is it something i did wrong?
That family has to "ignore her"
And treat me bad for so long?

I love my friends
And i can say it again and again
But when the family pretends
It makes you feel like you should end

And when i grow old
How will i turn out to be?
Ignorant and cold?
Or the person who i am...me?

It's so weird what you could do
With a family at your side
You could do whatever you want to
And make it, even if you never tried

And alls that i see
When i turn around
Are my friends looking at me
Their presence is such a beautiful sound

My family isn't there
Nor are they lost in the crowd
Maybe they still do care
Maybe they aren't allowed?

Knowing that you're living
With ONLY your friends here
Sometimes you want to be kidding
And you forget how to steer

I wish i had people to care
Like a family should do
Someone to be there
To actually believe in you

But I'll do with what i got
And that is my family
And trust me, there's a lot
Family is my friends, and they are proud to be
