Kirsty Lee Akers – The Territory Lyrics

  • by
Read Time:1 Minute, 5 Second

I was born in a territory to a woman who never really wanted me
I dont know if daddy did I dont even know who he is
When I was 3 the territory said mama couldnt take care of me
They sent strangers in the night to take me away from mamas side

15 years I bounced around from home to home from town to town
1 more week Ill turn 18
Whatll I do when the territorys through with me

Family after family said they wanted to rescue me
But foster dad and foster mum never wouldve let me stay that long
I cried a lot kicked and screamed wouldnt let anyone close to me

I pushed everyone away hopin my mama come back some day

15 years I bounced around from home to home from town to town
1 more week Ill turn 18
Whatll I do when the territorys through with me

Outside I may sound hurt dont need your shelter dont need your love
Inside Im so scared I dont have anyone I dont have anywhere

15 years I bounced around from home to home from town to town
1 more week Ill turn 18
Whatll I do when the territorys through with me

Whatll I do when the territorys through with me
