no better in fact

you beat me down with your words
call me a mistake
and you wondering why i'm the person standing here today
you want me to go back to what you think we had
to the pain that was made by the ones that were vain
to even think that their daughter
could live without the love of her mother and her father
and you want me to go back to when I was three
when I was forgiving , just like the forgiving tree
do you remember you used to read that to me?
So when I would wake up
I could leave yesterday behind
well, three was eleven years ago
and you want me to go back?
So you think you could change
what you think you don't have
maybe if you just opened your eyes
you could see
that everything you want
is standing right in front of me
just take a step forward and you'll see the light
instead you just laugh at the though of being happy
cause whether you not you know it, you like to cry
why else would you let yourself die inside?
So you tell me that i'm the problem
but it's just an excuse to not get over the pain
all you do is put on the blame
maybe your just scared to move
or  feel the reality
that you can live life without calling her name
no, instead you just mop
and tell me i'm a bitch
tell me what a horrible person I am
that i'm the center of everything that's gone wrong in your life
so you pretend like you know what you think is right
you always walk around and tell me what a horrible person i've become
but now the tables have turned and i've just begun
it's my turn now, I have the floor
so shut your mouth and don't say a word
cause I finally have a chance to tell you what you've been so looking for

All this time you haven't stopped for a second
taken a breathe and realize you can breath without her heart in your chest
you have everything you want can't you see
and  also you lack devotion to me
cause right now i'm all you have left in this rare insanity
you know the old saying the apple doesn't fall far from the tree
so who you think i've become will reflect off of you
so your not doing a very good job according to what you think of me

So you want me to go back to when I was three
so you can have a second chance to re-mold me
well, that was a long time ago, there's no turning back
i'm just like you, no better in fact.
