They wouldn't let me see him
And mother said be quiet
And father said I wouldn't understand
They were busy with the baby
Mother said it didn't matter
Father said I was still so very, very young
They told me to forget him
They said I had to see her,
Act as though nothing there had changed
And they were busy with the baby
And they told me to be quiet
And they said at my age I wouldn't understand
And she said he had deserved it
And she said I would forget him
And she told me everything was better now
So I'm screaming on the inside
While I'm quiet on the outside
They made it clear they wouldn't understand.
"Please tell me you're here to kill me."
