Lyrics
I was a golden child
Everything I ever did was to make you smile
When I thought I'd made you proud
You just liked the way I performed for a crowd

'Cause it made you look good, and that made you happy
But if I let you down, you wouldn't look at me
It's taken me thirty-five years to learn
Some bridges are better off burned

I've been forgiving you most of my life
Believing that that's what love is
Yeah, I tried to find any truth in your lies
But the truth is you're just too selfish
Thought being your daughter
Was thicker than water
But you saw me drowning and you let me go
So mama, I'm done trying to get blood from a stone

Sometimes I wanna make you hurt
Give you a taste of your bitter words
But then I'd be just like you
And I'm not that cold
Just done doing what I'm told, yeah

I've been forgiving you most of my life
Believing that that's what love is
Yeah, I tried to find any truth in your lies
But the truth is you're just too selfish
Thought being your daughter
Was thicker than water
But you saw me drowning and you let me go
So mama, I'm done trying to get blood from a stone
Yeah, I'm done trying to get blood from a stone

I wish I could say that it could be different
But you taught me love comes with conditions
It's taken me thirty-five years to learn
Some bridges are better off burned
