Fourteen Lyrics

I never knew my father was so broken [?]
Until the day I found my mother crying on the floor alone
She said "How could he do this to me?
How could he do this to us?
I thought we made a promise
But he said he broke my trust"

Now I'm left with these questions

Have you ever been left alone in a broken home?
Have you ever had to mediate for your parents sake?
Whom we talk about love, talk about giving it up
Why are we innocent raised within conflict?

I never knew that hearts could shatter just like broken glass
Til you proved to me that love is fragile, cracked yours in half
I just hope there's hope for me to stay home
So go ahead and call it off, go ahead and call it off
It's not just the fact that you're splitting up
It's that you're teaching me about giving up

Have you ever been left alone in a broken home?
Have you ever had to mediate for your parents sake?
Whom we talk about love, talk about giving it up
Why are we innocent raised within conflict?

So I'm moving along now and
I'll carry on trying the best that I can
Because of my father's sin
You blame your ashes on him
Got in a war with him
I'm so afraid of what's been going on
I [?]
That on the other side I finally breath with no concern
You always shout to me for being me and now I see
[?]
At age fourteen

Have you ever been left alone in a broken home?
Have you ever had to mediate for your parents sake?
Whom we talk about love, talk about giving it up
Now I'm left with these questions
Have you ever been left alone in a broken home?
Have you ever had to mediate for your parents sake?
Whom we talk about love, talk about giving it up
Why are the innocent raised within conflict?
