Years of Mistakes
My favourite toy fell out of the crib
I don't cry
I'm better than this
I fell down on the playground floor
I cry a little
I haven't felt so much pain before
The kids at school are mean to me
I suck it up
I know how to make them let me be
Moving schools was a challenge
I found a friend
She's nice to me and together we lead
I don't have control over myself
She can do so
It has to help
I have lines that cry on myself
I'm sorry mum
It's the only cry for help
I have lungs that sting and ache
I tried too hard
I made a mistake
But in each and every single case I say:
But it doesn't matter
Because I'm strong
I don't cry
I'm better than this
I fell down on the playground floor
I cry a little
I haven't felt so much pain before
The kids at school are mean to me
I suck it up
I know how to make them let me be
Moving schools was a challenge
I found a friend
She's nice to me and together we lead
I don't have control over myself
She can do so
It has to help
I have lines that cry on myself
I'm sorry mum
It's the only cry for help
I have lungs that sting and ache
I tried too hard
I made a mistake
But in each and every single case I say:
But it doesn't matter
Because I'm strong
