i love you more now than i did then

your anger seized up

you're stuck in survival

trust me, there's no one who knows you

better than I do

your words still hurt

you're still to blame

but you're still only learning

you just got pushed into the game

what he did won't last forever

what they said won't sting for long

you'll find comfort in love

but you must stay

to feel it someday

each day feels like walking through mud

I know, my dear, I know

you'll look back in regret

and feel the weight of it all over again

it's all okay

I promise

I love you all the same

you made me into who I am

you made me learn responsibility

you made me strong on my weakest days

I love you all the same
