Sorry About Your Parents

I'm sorry about your parents, they sound like bad people

Your daddy sounds like a jerk

I guess your mama didn't know the gift she got when she got you

I'm sorry about your life, you had it pretty rough

Bending over backwards, never good enough

You poor thing, it must suck to be you

And I know it's not your fault, it never is, is it?

I know what it's like staying up all night nursing wounds

It takes more than I have, pick fights with the past, I always lose

Oh, don't you know? That's no way to live

I know what it's like staying up all night nursing wounds

I get it, give me a little credit

I remember when I was that pathetic

Wear my scars on my sleeve, for all the world to see

Like look what they did to me quick, lay on the sympathy thick

You probably have the right to feel how you do

You were mistreated and cheated out of the childhood you needed

And now you'll never succeed if you're so convinced you're defeated

If you're obsessed with your yesterday then you're destined to repeat it

And I know it's not your fault, it never is, is it, is it, is it?

I know what it's like staying up all night nursing wounds

It takes more than I have, pick fights with the past, I always lose

Oh, don't you know? That's no way to live

I know what it's like staying up all night nursing wounds
