Текст песни Family Portrait, Pink

Uh, uh, some deep shit, uh, uh

Momma please stop cryin, I can t stand the sound
Your pain is painful and its tearin me down
I hear glasses breakin as I sit up in my bed
I told dad you didn t mean those nasty things you
said

You fight about money, bout me and my brother
And this I come home to, this is my shelter
It ain t easy growin up in World War III
Never knowin what love could be, you ll see
I don t want love to destroy me like it has done
my family

Can we work it out? Can we be a family?
I promise I ll be better, Mommy I ll do anything
Can we work it out? Can we be a family?
I promise I ll be better, Daddy please don t
leave

Daddy please stop yellin, I can t stand the sound

Make mama stop cryin, cuz I need you around
My mama she loves you, no matter what she says
its true
I know that she hurts you, but remember I love
you, too

I ran away today, ran from the noise, ran away
Don t wanna go back to that place, but don t have
no choice, no way
It ain t easy growin up in World War III
Never knowin what love could be, well I ve seen
I don t want love to destroy me like it did my
family

Can we work it out? Can we be a family?
I promise I ll be better, Mommy I ll do anything
Can we work it out? Can we be a family?
I promise I ll be better, Daddy please don t
leave

In our family portrait, we look pretty happy
Let s play pretend, let s act like it comes
naturally
I don t wanna have to split the holidays
I don t want two addresses
I don t want a step-brother anyways
And I don t want my mom to have to change her
last name

In our family portrait we look pretty happy
We look pretty normal, let s go back to that
In our family portrait we look pretty happy
Let s play pretend, act like it goes naturally

In our family portrait we look pretty happy
(Can we work it out? Can we be a family?)
We look pretty normal, let s go back to that
(I promise I ll be better, Mommy I ll do
anything)
In our family portrait we look pretty happy
(Can we work it out? Can we be a family?)
Let s play pretend act and like it comes so
naturally
(I promise I ll be better, Daddy please don t
leave)
In our family portrait we look pretty happy
(Can we work it out? Can we be a family?)
We look pretty normal, let s go back to that
(I promise I ll be better, Daddy please don t
leave)

Daddy don t leave
Daddy don t leave
Daddy don t leave
Turn around please
Remember that the night you left you took my
shining star?
Daddy don t leave
Daddy don t leave
Daddy don t leave
Don t leave us here alone

Mom will be nicer
I ll be so much better, I ll tell my brother
Oh, I won t spill the milk at dinner
I ll be so much better, I ll do everything right
I ll be your little girl forever
I ll go to sleep at night
