lyrics

I'm 13/My head up under the covers/Trying to muffle the screams/Of my father and mother/From the way the voice boomed/Think somebody's getting killed/But its usually minor/Probably over some bills/I put my headphones on/Turned up the Limp Bizkit/Try to find piece of mind/It's somewhere distance/Couldn't drown the sound/All the details I'm forced to know/Till 2 or 3AM yo/They would just go/Back in 78/A union no man could break/But how many internal struggles/Could it take/Two very different people/Trying to make it equal/But when children hit the building/Challenges are steeper/My father felt neglected/His headship/Disrespected/He knew after the kids/He became second/My mom didn't expect it/He would turn cold/So the late night screams yo/They would just go/Till 1 AM again/Tryin to rest my head/My mother comes in the room/Sits on the edge of my bed/Ask if she's still in love/With any part of her soul/Stares me dead in the face/Says she doesn't know/Hard to tell now/But she was before/Cupid changed his address/Love's here no more/So if love entered my life/I'd cherish it/Cause I've seen the collapse/It hurts when perishing/
