Family portrait (better)

Family portrait (better) Lyrics

Mama please stop cryin´
I can´t stand the sound
You´re pain is painful
And is tearing me down
I hear glasses braking
As I sit up in my bed
I told God u didn´t mean does nasty things u said
U fight about money
about me and my brother
and this I come home to
This is my shelter
It ain´t easy growin´up in World War 3
Never ´knowin´ what love could be
You´ll see
I dont want love to destroy me
like it has done my family

Can we work it out
Can we be a family
I promise I´ll be better
Mommy I´ll do anything
Can we work it out
Can we be a family
I promise I´ll be better
Daddy please don´t leave

Daddy please stop yellin´
I can´t stand the sound
Make mama stop cryin´
´Cause I need u around
My mama she loves u
No matter what she sais is true
I know that she hurts u
But remenber: I love u too!
I ran away today
Ran from the noise, ran away (Ran away)
Don´t wanna go back to that place
But don´t have no choice, no way

It ain´t easy growing up in WW3
Never knowin´what love cuold be
But I´ve seen
I don´t want to destroy me like it did my family

Can we work it out
Can we be a family
I promise I´ll be better
Mommy I´ll do anything
Can we work it out
Can we be a family
I promise I´ll be better
Daddy please don´t leave

In our family portrait, we look pretty happy
Lets play pretend, let´s act like it comes naturally
I don´t wanna have to split the holydays
I don´t wanna two addresses
I don´t want a stepbrother anyway
And I don´t want my mom have to change her last name!

In our family portrait we look pretty happy
We look pretty normal lets go back to that
In our family portrait we look pretty happy
Lets play pretend, act like it comes naturally
REPEAT

can we work it out
Can we be a family
I promise I´ll be better
Mommy I´ll do anything
Can we work it out
Can we be a family
I promise I´ll be better
Daddy please don´t leave

Daddy don´t leave
Daddy don´t leave
Daddy don´t leave
Don´t leave
Turn around please
Daddy don´t leave
Daddy don´t leave

Mama I´ll be nicer
I´ll be so much better
I´ll tell my brother
I won´t spill the milk at dinner
I´ll be so much better
I´ll do everything right
I´ll be you´re little girl 4 ever
I´ll go to sleep at night
Ohhhhhh Ohhhhhh Ohhhhhhh
