I run to the banister of our apartment building 3 floors up
Look at the sights
Look at the hope
I yell Hi everybody
Mom says not to yell to the other building
I turn around and daddy yells
Goddamnit quit those yells
I look at him with a tear
He does not understand I love him so dear
Mommy sits and stares
I am a 7 year old little girl
What good is a yell gonna do
I turn around and look all around
Lose myself in this world that is around
I can see the clouds
I can see the world
I wish I could stand on top and watch it around
I turn back around and mommy and daddy are fighting
WHat is with this constant antagonizing
I could play a trick and see if it stops
This is where I come in best
I stand on the banister
I tell mommy and daddy lookee here
I can walk a tight rope and not fall
I see my mom back away to the wall
She tells me to get down
Daddy comes towards me he looks angry
I back away
Daddy must not of understood
He scared me he was bigger than I
I was just a little girl
Mommy next time you have a baby
Show daddy how to love them instead of so much hatred
