Pink - Family Portrait lyrics

Album: Missundaztood (2001)

Uh, uh, some deep shit, uh, uh

Momma please stop cryin, I cannot stand the sound
Your pain is painful & 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 & my brother
And this I come home to, this is my shelter
It aint easy growin up in World War III
Never knowin what love could be, you will see
I do not want love to destroy me like it has done
my family

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

Daddy please stop yellin, I cannot stand the sound

Make mama stop cryin, cause 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 want to go back to that place, but don´t have
no choice, no way
It aint easy growin up in World War III
Never knowin what love could be, well I have seen
I do not want love to destroy me like it did my
family

Can we work it out? Can we be a family?
I promise I will be better, Mommy I will do anything
Can we work it out? Can we be a family?
I promise I will 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 do not want to have to split the holidays
I do not want two addresses
I do not want a step-brother anyways
And I do not 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 will be better, Mommy I will 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 & like it comes so
naturally
(I promise I will 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 will 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 will be so much better, I will tell my brother
Oh, I would not spill the milk at dinner
I will be so much better, I will do everything right
I will be your little girl forever
I will go to sleep at night
