I am sixteen years old
Evan gets sent to juvie after a drug bust at school
He tries not to rub it in that he was right about Evan
And he puts ice on my black eye everyday
Before and after school
And he tells me he's sorry
And I ask why
He says that he's sorry he didn't put together where the bruises came from
I tell him it's not his fault
He goes back to icing my eye
