...Listen to them fight.
Hear your mother cry.
Weekend at your dad's.
They don't know what they do to you.
Wrap yourself in black.
Listen to the Cure.
Love line won't call back.
They don't know
They don't care
They don't see
...but I do.
And if it feels good...
Do it.
And if it tastes fine...
Drink.
Well, there's a range of possibilities to find.
Teenager.
No one knows your name.
No one hears your cry.
Fall in with the fringe
Why don't you Fit in?
No one's wrong,
No one's right.
It comes down on you.
Found your life at the bottom of a bottle
Hear your mother cry
Fade into the night.
When they ask you why,
They don't see
They won't know
They won't feel
But I do.
Up the stairs..
Behind slammed doors
A boring life
The sweetness rots your teeth
Well, there's a range of possibilities to find.
Just a few more years.
You'll be gone.
--Teenager.
