I’m 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 don’t 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 you’d be happy   Only if you wanted to   And how would you treat me?   Because I would treat you   Oh you’d 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 you’d be better off dead   But I want to see you   I still want to see you   Oh would you call me?   Oh it’s not hard too   I’m the first one    Oh, you gave birth to   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 they’ve 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 you’d be happy   Only if you wanted to   And how would you treat me?   Because I would treat you   You’d be happy   Only if you wanted to      I’m 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?
