I'm hiding amoungst the flowers, where I'll while away the hours

I can hear them screaming, I wish I was dreaming

My life is like this bud here, not happy nor sad

Neither hideous nor beautiful, never good nor bad

My life has thorns, they make me bleed, they slash my wrists and face

And these vines are so much like arms that wrap around my waist

I want a man to pick a flower and put it behind my ear

I want him to understand what will happen very near

My dad will lash out to her my mom will crash on the  ground

And soon my little baby self will be nowhere to be found

So let this little child be little yet still brave

Dont let my little character ever leave or fade

I want to hold you in my arms I want to see you now

So leave me with my flowers on this cold and damp ground
