I don’t want you to be alone
Lonely child like me
A lonely child that trusts no one
And finds it hard to breathe
I know you are on your own
No brothers and sisters in your home
You are the only one
But you don’t have to be the lonely one
Like I was raised to be
Like I was raised to be
Like I was raised to be
You’re my perfection, my clean slate
My tabula rasa if you like
Oh but birthday seems so long ago
Some days are hanging by a thread
You wouldn’t notice you were meant to be an angel
Playing in the dirt, despite all the hurt
