It's another day at school |
| [00:16.01] |
And he's just walking out the door |
| [00:17.79] |
Got his rucksack on his back |
| [00:19.30] |
And his feet dragging on the floor |
| [00:21.18] |
Always late for when he's questioned |
| [00:22.78] |
He can't think of what to say |
| [00:24.56] |
Hides the bruises from the teachers |
| [00:26.15] |
Hoping that they go away |
| [00:27.80] |
Even though his mom and dad |
| [00:29.24] |
They both got problems of their own |
| [00:31.10] |
Caught a catch at 22 |
| [00:32.47] |
But he'd still rather be at home |
| [00:34.31] |
Cries himself to sleep and prays |
| [00:35.94] |
When he wakes up things might have changed |
| [00:37.81][01:50.38] |
But everything's still the same |
| [00:40.35][01:52.98] |
But didn't you say |
| [00:42.13][01:54.61][02:34.19] |
You always said that I should speak up hmm |
| [00:46.64][01:59.18] |
But it seems like all the things |
| [00:48.42][02:00.95] |
You said to me before meant nothing at all |
| [00:52.30][02:04.85][02:57.90] |
Because |
| [00:54.76][02:07.32][03:00.02][03:26.58][03:52.94] |
I keep telling you that Johnny's hitting me |
| [00:57.67][02:10.09][03:02.81][03:29.19][03:55.49] |
That's why I'm late for school |
| [00:59.89][02:12.41][03:05.12][03:31.69][03:58.00] |
(But you never listen) |
| [01:01.42][02:13.94][03:06.60][03:33.00][03:59.47] |
Instead you always seem to end up blaming me |
| [01:04.23][02:16.70][03:09.45][03:35.85][04:02.10] |
For things I didn't do |
| [01:06.67][02:19.15][03:11.85][03:38.15][04:04.77] |
(For what it's worth) |
| [01:08.00][02:20.47][03:13.25][03:39.69][04:05.96] |
I didn't even want to tell you anything |
| [01:10.86][02:23.36][03:16.06][03:42.50][04:08.79] |
In case it made things worse |
| [01:13.39][02:25.90][03:18.59][03:44.99][04:11.14] |
(Just so you know) |
| [01:14.62][02:27.20][03:19.92][03:46.40][04:12.71] |
Everytime I say that Johnny's hitting me |
| [01:17.38][02:29.95][03:22.64][03:49.03] |
Hey mom and dad it hurts |
| [01:27.26] |
Every day keeps on repeating |
| [01:28.55] |
Like the record on replay |
| [01:30.32] |
Slowly getting off the bus |
| [01:31.92] |
With Johnny waiting at the gates |
| [01:33.65] |
Like a friend who will smile |
| [01:34.84] |
And wave at him or calling out his name |
| [01:36.92] |
Put his arm around his neck |
| [01:38.48] |
Whisper "now give me all your change!" |
| [01:40.25] |
To afraid to make a scene |
| [01:41.75] |
Or plea with him to letting go |
| [01:43.53] |
He just takes whatever's coming |
| [01:45.19] |
Feels the pain with every blow |
| [01:46.93] |
Tries in vain to make himself be heard |
| [01:48.74] |
As soon as he gets home |
| [02:38.89] |
And to never be afraid to come |
| [02:41.09] |
And tell you if I needed to talk |
| [02:44.98] |
(If I needed to talk, yeh) |
| [02:47.42] |
Well I don't know the meaning of love hmm |
| [02:51.90] |
'Cos it seems like all the things you said to me |
| [02:54.96] |
Before meant nothing at all |
| [04:15.74] |
|
