  Abandoned


Deep in my mind I knew what would happen if she found out.
She'd blame me. She'd say it was my fault.
I must have done something to encourage him.
Her proof of that is that I never told.

But I knew she'd send me away.

I know she has the other kids to care for.
Four of them and besides, she loves him.
And she needs him to help her care for all those kids
She said she had no choice, she had to do what's best.

It was him or me.

You have to do what's best for everyone.
You have no choice. I'll go.
I'll make it easy for you. I won't make trouble
I'll be a good girl for you Mom. I'll go.

She gets rid of me so easily.
