Quit blaming it all on me.
Quit acting like it's all my fault.
I don't complain all the time
And I don't cry and whine.
I'm not the cause of all these problems,
So don't put this blame on me.
I'm sick of it -
I really am.
I'm tired of all the yelling.
I hate how you always take his side -
Especially when he's not right.
I hate the way you somehow thing
I like to pick these fights.
So please just top
And look and see, it's not just me.
It's all of us -
And that's how it'll always be.

My family arguing a lot inspired me to write this. When my mom first got married to my step-dad none of us really got along that well.
