Happy Family

I come home
and hear them yell
it's getting worse
I can tell

I hide in my room
and wish I couldn't hear
the sound of their screams
ringing in my ears

Daddy storms out
the front door slams
try not to cry
try as hard as i can

Mommy cries for a while
and then hits the drink
I don't want to feel
I don't want to think

Daddy has a temper
and things get broken
one time he hit mommy
and more bad words are spoken

When they don't yell at each other
they yell at me or my sis
is it to much to ask
for just a hug or a kiss

I try and be good
so we don't have to fight
but sis doesn't care
they scream more every night

everyday
it seems to get worse
Mommy will cry
and daddy will curse

They fight about everything
and it never seems to end
Mommy drinks much more often
Daddy's always out with friends

I fear for my family
or at least for what I've got
we were so happy once
but I think we all forgot
