My friends do not understand
I do not want to go out with them, I do not want to leave the house
They do not understand
Have they gone through this?
Tell me, Dad, did they ever go through this?

Please close the door, Mom
Tell them I'm sleeping
Do not let them catch me, they're worse than the critters below my bed
I'm crying softly, I'm crying softly
I do not want them to hear
I do not care if my pillow is wet

Please make it through, Mom
I can hear their whispers at dawn
I was not a good girl
They want to take me and punish me
