Today you walked away from me As though my love had all been free But here I am, paying the price I thought you were so nice... That's what I get for trusting someone Nothing comes to me in return I know I'll never learn. I came home to find support But I never got past the porch My parents were already fighting inside I felt a piece of my heart had died And then I sat down and I cried. In the news today there is nothing but pain There is hatred and racism, and no one takes blame Nobody shares, and nobody cares You try to reach out, but you get only glares There's no one on the phone for me And there is no one home for me So I sit on my porch alone, unhappy Crying for me. Soon enough the rain begins to fall At least the sky understands it all.
