Cay Aliese - a daughter (you can't love) Lyrics

I don't care how old I am, I'm still a daughter
You can tell me I'm the problem, but look in the mirror
Always tryna pin it on me
As if I'm the reason you're in misery One look and I know you're the same
Nothing is different, you can't make me believe

So go ahead and scream
Or shut down and don't talk to me for months
You say you never learned
But you quit and walk away, you withhold your love
Don't talk to me about patience, don't talk to me about kindness
I've never known it from the look in your eyes
Don't talk to me about God, don't talk to me about love
You act with your mouth and put on a disguise
But you can't love a daughter, no you can't love a daughter

Do you even notice me when I pull away
Or is it just a game for you to ignore your mistakes
Always tryna pin it on me
As if I'm the reason you're in misery
One look and I know you're the same Nothing is different, you can't make me believe

So go ahead and scream
Or shut down and don't talk to me for months
You say you never learned
But you quit and walk away, you withhold your love
Don't talk to me about patience, don't talk to me about kindness
I've never known it from the look in your eyes
Don't talk to me about God, don't talk to me about love
You act with your mouth and put on a disguise
But you can't love a daughter, no you can't love a daughter

I've been tryna wrap my head around how you can kick me while I'm on the ground
You lift me up until I'm high enough to feel it when you start pulling me down
The weight of crying all my silent tears while crumbling right by you all these years
Made me walk away,

So go ahead and scream
Or shut down and don't talk to me for months
You say you never learned
But you quit and walk away, you withhold your love
Don't talk to me about patience, don't talk to me about kindness
I've never known it from the look in your eyes
Don't talk to me about God, don't talk to me about love
You act with your mouth and put on a disguise
But you can't love a daughter, no you can't love a daughter
