Never Came Back

She left and didn't look back once.

You said you would change
but you never did
you stayed the same, throughout the years

you never came back
to wipe away my tears
you never said "i love you"
so that I could hear

To show you respect
is out of my league, but I can't hate you
one day I will love you
but now I can't because

You always said you would come back
you never did, so why did you say that?

Mom, you're a stranger to my mind and heart
you said you cared, but I know you lied
Mom, you could have saved me
but that part of me has died
I am not a little girl, I know my own feelings,
but

You never came back
to wipe away my tears
you never said "I love you"
so that I could hear

One day you'll look back
and ask if I love you
my reply will be that I can't
and that

You never came back

Mom, you're not special to me anymore
because I don't remember who you are
you weren't ever there
to hold me in your arms
