Misunderstood

Misunderstood

I sit awake and night
Writing this random thought
As my girl sleeps beside me
She doesn"t know I never get caught

My parents argued once
Had nothng to do with me
F*cked me up for the rest of my life
They sent me to therapy

Please, sir, I didn't mean to kill that man
Deep inside I'm really very good
But I was troubled as a child
You see, I'm just misunderstood

Jimmy's mom died when he was 8 years old
It left a hole inside him a mile wide
4 years later his dad found another woman
That's when Jimmy finally cried

Jimmy could no longer hide the pain
It broke his fathers heart, the way he cried
Before too long his father went insane
Shortly after, he committed suicide

Jimmy found something to take away the pain
Something that made him feel good
A touch too much and Jimmy OD'd
But he wasn't an addict, just misunderstood

Sally was a good school girl
But she liked to have her fun
Partied with a boy she liked
Congrats, Sally, you have a son

Mom and Dad took care of him for a while
Until Sally could get a job
14 round of your hired your fired
Sally became a street corner slob

It took away her looks but her legs still spread
May not have been pretty but she was good
Some of these men have beautiful wives
I guess they're just misunderstood

I like these lyrics, really captures the thoughts behind people in situations like these. Great job with it. When you get the chance, would you kindly look at some lyrics I posted about a year ago? I am trying to get back into writing again and fresh reviews/critiques will help motivate me
