I understand, you were hurting inside
But that wasn't my cross to bare
All of those times, you swallowed your pride
Holding the pain that was hiding in there

Living in turmoil, every day of your life
Lashing out every chance that you had
Suffering in heart just by being his wife
Feeling so angry and sad

I know that that I was the nearest one
To bare this cross for you
Now my pain is still hiding in there
Screaming in agony from the things that you'd do
And it wasn't my cross to bare

I have forgiven, but will never forget
All the pain that you've put me through
I love you Mom, and have no regrets
In handing this cross back to you
