Bring it on back to the young days when things wasn't so hard
Playin kickball in the school yard The year before kindergarten when memories started at the day care All the Little kids used to play there We had no worries just hated nap time but fingerpaintin' and playin' tag was fine And we would all run around except for this girl She stayed in the corner, Yeah her name was Mary Anne She missed half of the school days scince the year began Never wore a shirt that showed more than her hands She rockin' jeans & Long sleeves in like 90 degrees You know lil' kids they treat her like she got a disease Came in 1 day all her hair was gone Said her mamma cut it off cause she did something wrong Tears in her eyes when she finally said somethin Usually she would get scared and wouldn't say nothin Days that went by, she had to cry, wonder why did it happen to me Day after day, she slipped away, wonder why did it happen to me Elementary she got the seat next to me Lucky i wasnt mean like the rest could be She treated like an outcast wonder how long she could outlast Bein alienated by the whole class It was still touch and go with the whole school scenario In for days out for weeks still scared to speak I wonder if that one time she had tried to tell and the teacher shrugged her off like Oh Well I wonder if that shut her down Maybe she had no one to turn to Maybe this little girl didnt know what to do We had a project one week me and Mary Anne a team So i invited her to my house for ice cream She bangin on the door at the house invite her to sit on the couch She looked me in the eyes Mary Anne began to cry I said what's wrong she said she wanted someone to tell her why Days that went by, she had to cry, wonder why did it happen to me Day after day she slipped away, wonder why did it happen to me After that incident she didnt really want to talk to me I'd see her in the hall Call out but she wouldnt walk with me Junior high she got cover up caked up You could see the bruises underneath the make - up Stories to make up people askin question now She breakin down but still no confessions now She walk around dazed out lost in another land spaced out And as days go by she grows more distant Teachers barely aware of her existance She in and out more out than in And one day i'm in class The ambulance pass screechin Down by the artroom off to the right in the bathroom They found Mary Anne on the floor A bottle next to her Said she took like 50 pills or more And left a note that said she couldnt handle it no more Days that went by, she had to cry, wonder why did it happen to me Day after day she slipped away, wonder why did it happen to me |
