Jessica Anonymous - Why

Why cant i sleep at night?
why must i watch mom cry?
why couldnt i be a child?
why must my emotions hide?

why do you yell?
why wont i cry?
why am i so messed up?
why cant i die?

why am i miserable,
just to make you happy?
why cant the pain go numb?
why do the bad feelings trap me?

why was i born?
why must i be stronger?
The answer is you,
my 'loving' father.
