Turning my Wheels on my own

I hardly ever see you.
And you scarcely ever call
I listened the few times when you did.
Then I believed you as if I were a kid.

You said I was the wheel
that makes your motor turn.
You'd always show me
love and concern.
You placed me in the shadows to learn.
But I've decided it's my turn.
I'll turn the wheel for myself.

I was hurt, when you weren't there for me.
Believe you'd be here if I needed help.
So now your promises seem untrue.
I had to handle whatever life threw.

I decided that we're done.
Love was not our foundation
I got used to being on my own.
I've been fighting all my battles alone.
