Christina I'm lyrics

I’m

Once upon a time there was a girl
In her early years she had to learn
How to grow up living in a war that she called home
Never knew just where to turn for shelter from the storm
It hurt to see the pain cross my mother’s face
Every time my father’s fist would put her in her place
Hearing all the yelling I would cry uo in my room
Hoping it would be over soon

Chorus:
Bruises fade father but the pain remains the same
And I still remember how you kept me so afraid
Strength is my mother for all the love she gave
And every morning that I wake I look back for yesterday
And I’m

I often wonder why I carry all this guilt

When it’s you that helped me put up all these walls I’ve built
Shodows stir at night through a crack in the door
Echoes of a brocken child screaming please no more
Daddy don’t you understand the damage you have done
For you it’s just a memory but for me it still lives on

Bruises fade father but the pain remains the same
And I still remember how you kept me so afraid
The strenght is my mother for all the love she gave
Every morning that I pray I look back for yesterday

It’s not so easy to forget, all the marks you left along her neck
When I was thrown against cold stars
And everyday afraid to come home in fear of what I might see, next

Chorus
