I Want To Be Alone!

by Taylor   Jan 19, 2008


The times when I need to be by myself
The little brat comes down and wants to play
I need time to think of that someone else
But my stupid brother always has to get his way
I tell him I want to be alone, and he walks upstairs and acts all sad
Then he cries his stupid fake tears, freakin little baby
And of course, my parents have to scream at me, like I did something bad
Will they ever care about me? I don't even think it's a "maybe"
My brother is their pride and joy
I get treated like sh*t in my family, and they don't realize
They throw me around like a broken freakin toy
And it's mostly because of them I let out these damn cries
I feel invisible to my parents, and my brother always sucks up
He cuddles up to them and says "Mommy/Daddy, I love you"
But I see through all his sh*t, and I'm still stuck
They only care about that freakin thing, it's all true

Then after I get yelled at, and I have tears in my eyes
They go on all happy with my brother, and act like nothing went down
Then I get yelled at again, just for letting out cries
"Stop crying, you baby," They say, "And take off the stupid frown"
I'm honestly not afraid to say, I hate my family right now
I wanna be with my boyfriend and my best friends, because I know they care
I'm about to cry now, and I just want to know how
How I can get out of this situation, and make my parents realize, I'm there
They don't even know a quarter of my life
And they call me "immature" and "bratty", well, what did I do?
They don't know, that one time, I almost used a knife
And if I had the chance, it's them, I'd sue
I don't want to be in this house, I want to be with someone who loves me
Someone that cares, and actually knows I'm alive
I want to be with someone, who will actually see
That living in this family, makes me want to die

    Taylor, you let alot of feeling out and that's good, but maybe you should be telling them just this same thing. IDK, I don't have the answers but it seems to me your hurting pretty bad. I wish I could help but we know that's not possible. I'm always here for you, if you need to yell or vent, do it on me...it's cool.......I'll send you my email address in a message....xoxo
