i sit here in my room
listening to them yell at each other
i never thought this would happen
my father and my mother
have been fighting for a while
but i still put on a fake simle
as a tear roles down my cheek
i remember what we used to be
one big happy family
but thats all in the past
i guess it goes to show
some things dont always last
i just wish we could go back to when we had fun
all four of us sitting under sun
