I'm not beaten and broken

My body's just sore,

It wasn't me lying on that floor.

I just bruise really easily,

You've got things all wrong.

See, sometimes my dad and me

Just dont get along.

But really he loves me,

I just get in his way.

Sometimes I make him so angry

But that's just how we play.

I don't care what they told you,

I don't care what you heard,

You see, It's not that I'm lying

Or going against your word;

But I wasn't sleeping.

He didn't drag me out of bed.

He just had a bad day

And I tripped and hit my head

My dad would never hurt me

And that's the whole truth.

Just ask my mother

She'll give you proof.

We're a big happy family

No, there's no abuse,

You're trying to trick me,

Well, there's just no use.

You see I fall alot,

I'm clumsy that way,

And the burns on my arms-

What are you trying to say?

I'm telling you everything

But you just won't believe,

But really you can't stay here

You just have to leave.

My dad's coming home soon

And my mom's in her room

And if they find out you came here

Well, I wouldn't know what they'd do.

But really you should go now,

I hope now you see,

My parents are never harmful,

I told you they love me.
