Ode To My Family
by The Cranberries
Understand the things I say
Don't turn away from me 'Cause I spent half my life out there You wouldn't disagree D'you see me, d'you see Do you like me, do you like me standing there D'you notice, d'you know Do you see me, do you see me Does anyone care? Unhappiness, where's when I was young And we didn't give a damn 'Cause we were raised To see life as a fun and take it if we can My mother, my mother she'd hold me Did she hold me, when I was out there My father, my father, he liked me Oh he liked me, does anyone care? Understand what I've become It wasn't my design And people everywhere think Something better than I am But I miss you, I miss 'Cause I liked it, 'cause I liked it When I was out there D'you know this, d'you know You did not find me, you did not find Does anyone care? Unhappiness was when I was young And we didn't give a damn 'Cause we were raised To see life as fun and take it if we can My mother, my mother she'd hold me Did she hold me, when I was out there My father, my father, he liked me Oh he liked me, does anyone care? Does anyone care? Does anyone care? Does anyone care? Does anyone care? Does anyone care? Does anyone care? Does anyone care? Doo doo doo do, doo doo doo do Doo doo doo do, doo doo doo do Doo doo doo do, doo doo doo do Doo doo doo do, doo doo doo do
