I come from a family that doesn't accept mistakes That November I made a mistake like never before I said I would stay forever But I lied and I made a mistake with you I won't apologize Because they would be fake I won't give you a smile Because it would be fake I won't give you a gift Because it would be a bribe I know I made a mistake, I know I lied But I have the right to make mistakes I know what I did wrong, I know what I did But this is my life I can make mistakes, I can feel I can be the worst, I can become the best I'm 16 years old And I am what I should be I come from a torturous place I broke things, I broke alliances and friendships Pretending to be okay, pretending not to be destroyed But children of controlling parents are liars I won't pretend I'm okay Because you always know I won't feel like dying Because you would save me I won't ask for help Because that drowning is what I want most I know I made a mistake, I know I lied But I have the right to make mistakes I know what I did wrong, I know what I did But this is my life I can make mistakes, I can feel I can be the worst, I can become the best I'm 16 years old And I am what I should be Being a teenager is part of the journey Don't demand what's right from me I have to go through the cycle I'm only 16 years old
