I listen to them yell
then the pounding on stairs
then the slamming door
this life is like hell
all i hear at night
is the sound of their voices
all i can hope for tonight
is that there wont be a huge fight
they keep me up
so i finally give in
i grab my razor blade and look at it close
then i look at sassey my new pup
she looks at me wondering whats in my hand
i can see her telling me that everything will be OK
shes my saving grace, with that look in her eye
i drop the razor into the trash not watching it land
i still hear them screaming downstairs
i look into her eyes and all i see
is the love she has for me
i lay my head down on her soft hairs
her and my horse
are the only things I'm afraid to leave behind
they are the ones who never scream at me
they give me all the love they have or course
my mom comes up crying
and knocks on my door
she tells me every things OK
but i know thats shes lying
for in the morning i see
a picture on the floor
the frame is shattered
when i pick it up what i see is that its a picture of me
my parents love me i know that for sure
but they just cant seem to love each other anymore
