Opened up a box of you
Piece of paper or two with my name written on it
And a question mark
Who is this girl I have made?
Cause I've been kept in the dark

And I've seen you once father
In the fear of your belts and leather
And you were just about to tempter
There was distance
You're my spout resistance
I can't believe you still don't know me
Cause I am a mystery

So I separated all the things that I have hated
With the victories I have won
And the biggest one is you
You don't know my street or
The size of my feet or the time it took to grow
Cause father, these are things you should know
These are things you should know

Knocked the breath right out of you
What's a brown eye girl to do?
When her future lies and chasing paper
And, all I get from you is your
"You're so clever I'll see you later"
I just cant hide my frustration
When there's so much more you could have done like
Given me hope and attention
Instead of ignored

But I don't mind, no I don't mind
Cause he is just a boy
Cause we are children, we are merely children
And, he is just a boy

So I separated all the things that I have hated
With the victories I've won
And the biggest one is you
You don't know my street
Or the size of my feet or
Or the time it took to grow
Cause father these are things you should know
