Erica Perwitz - Growing Up Lyrics

She grew up never knowing why
Love never lasts
It could've been the broken heart
That started in her broken little world

She'd like to forget
The house that was never a home
She'd like to forgive

You wonder why her walls are up, so high
Her eyes tell the story
Her heart tries to hide the truth
Can you blame her?

She grew up never knowing why
Everyday was a fight
She'd come home with fear in her eyes
Knowing it was just another day in hell

She'd like to forget
The screamin that kept her up all night
She'd like to forgive

You wonder why her walls are up, so high
Her eyes tell the story
Her heart tries to hide the truth
Can you blame her?

With tears in her eyes
She watched her daddy leave
Goodbye for the night
With sadness in her heart
She watched her momma cry
It will be alright

You wonder why her walls are up, so high
Her eyes tell the story
Her heart tries to hide the truth
Can you blame her?
You can't blame her

She grew up never knowing why
She grew up never knowing why
