Lone Star
If I could be anywhere I wouldn't be here
Off of the radar I would disappear
Empty the dresser in the dead of the night
Cause every mention of love was insincere
Pulling the rug was still my worst fear
I was too young to ever put up a fight
Cause if I had my mother's eyes I'd hate the things I'd seen
Tryna save face for what I could never be
As much as I cry and I plead for the things
That you said were my fault
I wish you could've seen it all
If I could tell you anything then we would never speak
Years of resentment flooding back to me
If life is a gift then I would give it back
And I still remember the threats buried deep in my head
All the violence that passed, you couldn't see it then
I was falling inside of me
But you were way too occupied with yourself to see
Cause if I had my mother's eyes I'd hate the things I'd seen
Tryna save face for what I could never be
As much as I cry and I plead for the things
That you said were my fault
I wish you could've seen it
Cause if I had my mother's eyes I'd hate the things I see
Tryna save face for what I could never be
As much as I cry and I plead for the things
That you said were my fault
I wish you could've seen it all
Cause you weren't there when I was alone
When I was in love and you were at home
And you always missed when I was a child
Well him you can keep so I get to smile
Smile
Smile
Smile
Smile
Off of the radar I would disappear
Empty the dresser in the dead of the night
Cause every mention of love was insincere
Pulling the rug was still my worst fear
I was too young to ever put up a fight
Cause if I had my mother's eyes I'd hate the things I'd seen
Tryna save face for what I could never be
As much as I cry and I plead for the things
That you said were my fault
I wish you could've seen it all
If I could tell you anything then we would never speak
Years of resentment flooding back to me
If life is a gift then I would give it back
And I still remember the threats buried deep in my head
All the violence that passed, you couldn't see it then
I was falling inside of me
But you were way too occupied with yourself to see
Cause if I had my mother's eyes I'd hate the things I'd seen
Tryna save face for what I could never be
As much as I cry and I plead for the things
That you said were my fault
I wish you could've seen it
Cause if I had my mother's eyes I'd hate the things I see
Tryna save face for what I could never be
As much as I cry and I plead for the things
That you said were my fault
I wish you could've seen it all
Cause you weren't there when I was alone
When I was in love and you were at home
And you always missed when I was a child
Well him you can keep so I get to smile
Smile
