  • Maybe I was too young
    To fully understand
    That's why I never healed from it healthy
    Why I never trusted a man
    You gotta love the way you have and I'll
    Take that to my grave
    Soon you'll open up your eyes and it'll all be gone one day
    And I'm sitting here convincing you
    To pick up the phone and call
    I am my father's daughter but I'm
    Nothing like him at all
    I hear him in the way I speak
    When I look in the mirror
    The anger's grown in me and shows
    Can it be any clearer?
    That I'm like him 'cause he made me
    The way I am when we're fighting
    And all I need is somebody

    And I'm crying on my mama's floor
    Why don't you want this anymore?
    And I'm craving you to change for me
    You're saying, "I hear you and I love you
    My heart it hurts for you
    And I just cannot give you what you need"
    Am I too much? Am I enough?
    'Cause you said you wouldn't give up
    Now I'm numb on my knees
    Praying to God you talk to me
    Wondering what it takes for you to stay
    Off my mind and far out of my bloodstream

    You never laid your hands on me
    And that's something that I'm grateful for
    But I should've known that you'd gone mad
    When I saw the way you punched your doors
    And I don't regret loving you
    'Cause I know that you needed it
    But the way you treated me
    Made me feel like a little kid
    Something deep inside of me tells
    Me that you're not better now
    And I'm sorry that I couldn't help
    But I'm so glad I made it out

    And I'm crying on my mama's floor
    Why don't you want this anymore?
    And I'm craving you to change for me
    You're saying, "I hear you and I love you
    My heart it hurts for you
    And I just cannot give you what you need"
    Am I too much? Am I enough?
    'Cause you said you wouldn't give up
    Now I'm numb on my knees
    Praying to God you talk to me
    Wondering what it takes for you to stay
    Off my mind and far out of my bloodstream Writer/s: Alyssa Grace, Steven Beyer
