Left Behind

Was it something I did?

Was it something I said?

You've taken away,

The life I could have lead.

It is too late now,

It will never be the same.

The time has changed me.

The past is to blame.

I don't know my own parents,

I always wonder about who you could be,

Do you wish for me each night?

Or have you forgotten about me?

Do you ever think

Of how things could've been?

Had you not left me,

In that little plastic bin.

I don't know what to do

I don't know which way to go.

I thought parents were like angels,

I didn't know.

I thought you were dumb,

I thought you were smart,

But now I just wonder,

Do you even have a heart?

How could you leave me,

In that little tubbaware,

Just wrapped in a blanket,

On an orphanage stair?

I thought you were my protectors,

That you would one day come back for me,

But that was 1998,

Now it's 2015.

I grew up without parents,

I carved my own knife,

Now I'm done waiting for you,

You're out of my life.
