If I had known beforehand
all the things you'd do...

Mommy can I tell you a secret?
Mommy, promise not to tell...

She looked at me, and i looked away
her eyes asked too much of someone like me...

I listen to the laughter from the sidelines, and I...
joining in for that split second before I realized...

You ask me what’s wrong
then you tell me not to worry...

I fought him as he tore at me
with hands so full of hate...

On the wings of an angel
we’ll fly away from home...

It's the adolescent heartbreak
they say will go away...

Sometimes i wanna ask
if she’s ever thought about it...

He was a beggar I guess,
with clothes tattered and torn...

Words swell up inside me
chaos in my brain...

I walked along a city sidewalk
I walked along an empty street...
