Lie after lie.
Drink after drink.
Hour after hour.
I sit here waiting on something that will never change.
I lay awake at night wondering why you do this.
Why can't you just be home?
Why aren't you responsible?
Why do you put me through this without even knowing?
I should say something to you.
But, your reactions, I fear.
You can't continue to put me down.
I won't listen to what you say any longer.
I refuse to lower myself into thinking the way you do.
You cannot change me.
I never want to be like you.
I will put all effort into being me.
Into being better than you.
You've lost my respect.
Try and gain it back.
But, I can say, you won't.
Things will never change.
You will never change.
So, live your life your own way.
But, don't dare try to affect or be part of mine.
