The Kids Can't Lose
Johnny sits alone seeking,
Comfort in Lennon.
Pressing foot steps,
Were blowing with wind.
All the weeds to pull him under.
Being force-fed meds and structure.
The itch under his skin,
Had him screaming again.
It didn't sink in.
He was sinking.
No one ever understood,
What He was feeling.
Don't let them drag you under
Don't let them get to you,
Don't let them get to you.
Their words like stones,
For all your broken bones.
Don't let them break,
Don't let them break you.
Mary's a freak she's an outcast,
A name without a voice.
The schoolyard took her,
For everything she's worth.
All the weeds to pull her under.
Being neglected by her mother.
No friends bring her in,
And She's screaming again.
It didn't sink in
She was sinking
No one ever understood
What She was feeling.
Don't let them drag you under
Don't let them get to you,
Don't let them get to you.
Their words like stones,
For all your broken bones.
Don't let them break,
Don't let them break you.
He's got some pain in his heart.
The weight tied to his legs,
To drown him under.
She's got some pain in her heart.
The weight tied to her legs,
Just ripping her apart.
Don't let them drag you under
Don't let them get to you,
Don't let them get to you.
Their words like stones,
For all your broken bones.
Don't let them break,
Don't let them break you
It didn't sink in
they were sinking
No one ever understood
What they were feeling.
