Im wishing the bath water clean

She hides in the back and is unseen

I take off the mask that surrounds me

Look me in the face

What do you see

I feel like a boy the age of 13

My body grows up

But my mind stays the same

Look me in the face

What do you see?



How do you tell an angel

That you dont believe in God?

Why do I feel

Like such a stranger

I look around

I look around

And all my friends are gone



But oh would you be me?

Because I would be you

Oh youd be happy

Only if you wanted to

And how would you treat me?

Because I would treat you

Oh youd be happy

Only if you wanted to



How do you tell your Father,

That you want him to notice you?

Why does this seem like such a bother?

When mom says youd be better off dead

But I want to see you

I still want to see you

Oh would you call me?

Oh its not hard too

Im the first one

On your birthday

And oh would you write me

On my birthday

Graduation, was yesterday

Yesterday

Oh



How do you hold the special victim?

When they push you away

When theyve been

Raped on the inside

Torn on the outside

The dirt and ugly from the stain that they try to hide

Touched in private places

Embarassed faces

To scared to ask for help



Oh would you be me?

Because I would be you

Oh youd be happy

Only if you wanted to

And how would you treat me?

Because I would treat you

Youd be happy

Only if you wanted to



Im wishing the bath water clean

She hides in the back and is unseen

I take off the mask that surrounds me

Look me in the face

What do you see?
