This is my family
This is what they do
They call me when they need me
But won't listen to a word I say
They want the money, they want the luxury
But they won't give me ten minutes of their time
They pretend they love me
So sweet, so kind, they pretend all the time
Do you imagine I am blind to your actions
Do you think that I don't hear the sigh as
You answer the phone
Do you think that I am oblivious to your impatience
I have two sons
The sweetest one......gone!
He bought me flowers on any day
Especially on Mother's day
Now the two remaining
Call me on no specific day
Flowers.....now what is that?
Money we could spend on us
Surely you know this to be true
Did you think we here to love you?
Our mother you may be
That's just because we need money
But I am stronger than you think
My mind recalls each and every action
My heart is branded bruised and now cold
There is no more shivers
No more fears
There is knowing and seeing and hearing
Endurance this is what this is now
Numbness and nothingness
Just a void of where love once lived
You are free now
Free to move on and free to live
But know you live without me
No more money, no more hope
I have learned money does not buy love
Be on your way
Please go away
Leave me the hell alone
I am not broken I have healed
I have grown
Once I was disillusioned
But my love for you paid the price
Now I see it all so clearly
You money thirsty fuckery
I bid you all a good day
Please stay the hell away!
Remember the day I asked you to pour me a drink
I am not here to serve you, you said, think!
Remember when I wanted to spend your birthday with you
But you choose to spend your birthday with friends
Hope those friends, can help you out
All the things I wanted to give
You took it all so willingly
Thinking me a fool
It's all good darlings, so good for me
So good for you all, so happy ever after
Sorry insufficient funds!
