[hometext] => My sister gave up everything to raise me, and I hate myself even more everyday because I'm the reason for all her troubles and suffering....and I feel like if I just left home and never came back, things would be much easier for her
[bodytext] => I feel like the greatest burden to my sister
The cause of all her pain and tears
And I'm only making it worse
As long as I'm here
No I can't stand on my own yet
... I'm not self-sufficient
But what if just like you
Life forced me into that position
Into a worse-case-predicament
Would I have proper vision
To make self-best decisions
Or would I put myself in situations like Daren or Desmond
Live in a "Greenhouse" or get a girl pregnant
I turn to Professor Life and tell 'em
I'm ready for my greatest lesson
He says "Pack your things
All your needs & wants
It's time to leave your homefront"
I take all the burdens I brought into her life that are my own
Say one last goodbye to her and my home
