Lyrics
You call me up
Asking for the world
Something I can't do
That means I don't love you
You insult what I wear
You insult what I do
In the breath, say I hurt you
And when I go to you
You got better things to do
Than care about someone who's not you
And I know that you're hurting too
Your mother did the same thing to you
But I want a parent too
I'm so sick of parenting you
Don't lean on me
Don't lean on me
'Cause you've leaned on me
Since I was thirteen and I was your rock
But every time that I tried to lean back I
Always seemed to fall
He's about to buy me a ring
"Mom can you be happy for me?"
You dance around the question
While my heart is begging
Now we're talking about my dad
And how much he hurt you
I'm so sick of that
What does that have to do with this?
With any of this
So I ask again, "Can you be happy for me?
I love him with my whole heart"
You said you don't if you can
And that maybe you're jealous of me
'Cause your marriage is falling apart
And I know that you're hurting too
Your mother did the same thing to you
But I want a parent too
I'm done looking for a parent in you
Don't lean on me
Don't lean on me
'Cause you've leaned on me
Since I was thirteen and I was your rock
But every time that I tried to lean back I
Always seemed to fall
I always seemed to fall
You want me to be your shoulder
You want me to be your counselor
You want me to be your rock
But can I just be your daughter?
Could you please be my mother?
I guess not so I think I'm done
Yeah I think I'm done
I'm sorry mom but I'm done
Yeah I'm done
Don't lean on me
'Cause I always seem to fall
