We never had much but the words on the walls
Stories and blood on those crumbling bathroom stalls
The only excuse to escape the torturing class
And cry in the bathroom, look out the window glass
Reflection in the mirror, blood stained sink
All alone to your thoughts, the deameaning words you think
A break in the prison, your mascara dripping
Thanking God you could miss the class you're skipping
We've never had much but the words on the walls
Stories and blood on those crumbling bathroom stalls
