Family Ties

A beautiful house,
Three cars in the drive,
That’s what I saw when I first arrived.
A troubled boy,
An angry girl,
A fight to the top of this mechanical world.
A worn out mum,
A cheating dad,
My this family seems very sad.
A big brown front door,
A story of lies,
That’s what you’ll see when you open your eyes.
