Leave me alone
Please leave me alone
Shut up, I can't take it

This incessant crying,
This constant river of tears
is making me crazy

I know I'm horrible for saying it
But I don't want to listen to you cry
I don't want to listen to you tell me
About everything that's gone wrong
I don't want it

Please let me be

I can't handle this cloud of sadness
Always lingering
I'm surrounded
Completely surrounded
This cloud will be the death of us all
It will suffocate

Seeing you hurt
Makes me hurt too
And that's what really makes me angry
I don't want to be sad anymore
Don't I deserve to be happy?
Yes I do.
And you do too.
So please, please stop crying

But if you must cry
Do it softly
So that I can't hear it through the door

If you must cry
Don't let me see
Just let me be

Leave me alone

Let us both suffer
In silence
And in solitude

This is deep and has many meanings; not only child to mother.
