Pink - Family Portrait Lyrics






Some deep shit
Look away

Momma please stop crying, I can't stand the sound
Your pain is painful and it's tearin' me down
I hear glasses breaking as I sit up in my bed
I told dad you didn't mean those nasty things you said

You fight about money, 'bout me and my brother
And this I come home to, this is my shelter
It ain't easy growing up in World War III
Never knowing what love could be
You'll see
I don't want love to destroy me like it has done my family

Can we work it out? (Can we?) Can we be a family? (Can we?)
I promise I'll be better (I promise), Mommy I'll do anything (I'll do anything)
Can we work it out? Can we be a family?
I promise I'll be better, Daddy please don't leave

Daddy please stop yelling (Stop), I can't stand the sound (Can't stand the sound)
Make mama stop crying, 'cause I need you around
My mama she loves you, no matter what she says it's true
I know that she hurts you, but remember I love you, too

I ran away today, ran from the noise, ran away (Ran away)
Don't wanna go back to that place, but don't have no choice, no way
It ain't easy growing up in World War III
Never knowing what love could be
Well I've seen
I don't want love to destroy me like it did my family

Can we work it out? (Can we work it?) Can we be a family?
I promise I'll be better, Mommy I'll do anything
(I promise I'll do anything to keep you there)
Can we work it out? Can we be a family?
I promise I'll be better (I promise, I promise), Daddy please don't leave

In our family portrait (In our family portrait) we look pretty happy (We look pretty happy)
Let's play pretend, let's act like it comes naturally
I don't wanna have to split the holidays
I don't want two addresses
I don't want a step-brother anyways
And I don't want my mom to have to change her last name

In our family portrait we look pretty happy
We look pretty normal, let's go back to that
In our family portrait we look pretty happy
Let's play pretend, act like it goes naturally

In our family portrait we look pretty happy
(Can we work it out? Can we be a family?)
We look pretty normal, let's go back to that
(I promise I'll be better, Mommy I'll do anything)

In our family portrait we look pretty happy
(Can we work it out? Can we be a family?)
Let's play pretend and act like it comes so naturally
(I promise I'll be better, Daddy please don't leave)

In our family portrait we look pretty happy
(Can we work it out? Can we be a family?)
We look pretty normal, let's go back to that
(I promise I'll be better, Daddy please don't leave)

In our family portrait we look pretty happy
(Can we work it out? Can we be a family?)
We look pretty normal, let's go back to that
(I promise I'll be better, Daddy please don't leave)

Daddy don't leave
Daddy don't leave
Daddy don't leave
Turn around please
Remember that the night you left you took my shining star?
Daddy don't leave
Daddy don't leave
Daddy don't leave
Don't leave us here alone

Mom will be nicer
I'll be so much better, I'll tell my brother
Oh, I won't spill the milk at dinner
I'll be so much better, I'll do everything right
I'll be your little girl forever
I'll go to sleep at night

  14. A.... ....

    Man this song jams..

  15. H.... P....

    My parents split up before I could remember anything but I think my dad may have beat my mom or something by the way she says she is glad that I can't remember them being together. I feel like my dad is on the same level to me as a close family friend. I can't tell him things or argue with him because I don't know him enough to do so. Sometimes I wonder what it would be like if they were happy with each other and they had stayed together.

  16. R.... ....

    My parents divorced and my mom married a man who was very abusive. Me and brother kept calling our dad everytime we got abusived and he came over as much as he could.

  17. J.... ....

    It aint easy growing up in world war III ( ͡° ͜ʖ ͡°)

  18. t.... g....

    2003..................

  19. A.... L....

    My childhood. My parents were constantly fighting and screaming. My dad was an alcoholic. Threw things, slammed doors, screamed at my mom and us kids. I still have issues at 28 years old. I can’t hear loud noises like a door slamming it brings me right back to those days. I wish I could let the past go.

  20. p.... g....

    Great jop pink... U made me cry. Darn it.

  21. g.... ....

  25. P.... P....

    "I don't want two adresses!" Good point! 👍

  26. a.... 7....

    I remember 12 year old me, laying in bed listening to my parents screaming and fighting, most times violently. I would lock myself in my room, put this CD in my stereo and blare this song as loud as I possibly could. This song still gives me a sickening gut feeling because it always brings me back to those moments, but I can't help to not love this song. Her voice always got me through it. ❤

  27. G.... H....

    PLEASE tell me I’m not the only one who used to watch endless sims 2 videos to this song

  28. S.... H....

    This video is so close 'cause I was that little girl. I love my Mom for keeping us together when Dad left!!! SHE'S MY HERO!!!

    After all these years i understand the lyrics, its about the narcistic family, the "family portrait" it all looks pretty happy fron the outside but decaying on the inside, "lets play pretend, act like it comes naturally" typical narcisstic family dynamics
