Howard's Tale |
| Age five, just a little boy shy |
| Is he ready for the big surprise |
| He’ll be playing Lego in a dream |
| When the shadows come to life |
| Age nine and he should’ve been fine |
| With a secret he’s sure to keep |
| Two times had to tell a little lie |
| For the sake of him and me |
| Now it’s over |
| I need closure |
| Hey, look what you did to me |
| When you were taking me home |
| Getting me stoned |
| Leave me alone |
| I waited for mum to comfort me |
| But when I opened my mouth |
| «Don't say nothing, shh» |
| Age twelve and it isn’t going well |
| Now it’s 3 years to the day |
| Confused, but unlike you |
| This feeling won’t go away |
| Sixteen and the woman down the street |
| Has invited him to come inside |
| The first time, it didn’t feel right |
| It’ll be the last time he tries |
| Hey, look what you did to me |
| When you were taking me home |
| Getting me stoned |
| Leave me alone |
| I waited for mum to comfort me |
| But when I opened my mouth |
| Don’t say nothing’s wrong |
| I won’t say nothing’s wrong |
| I won’t say, I won’t say |
| I won’t say, I won’t say |
| I won’t say, I won’t say |
| Seventeen, all he’s ever seen |
| Is living in between the lies |
| It’s kind of funny how a mind |
| Can keep living in denial |
| Eighteen is a very strange scene |
| He’s still playing with the past |
| Expelled, maybe someone could’ve helped |
| If someone had known to ask |
| Hey, look what you did to me |
| When you were taking me home |
| Getting me stoned |
| Leave me alone |
| I waited for mum to comfort me |
| But when I opened my mouth |
| «Don't say nothing, shh» |
| Nineteen and he’s innocently |
| Parked right beside a school |
| He stares at a boy sitting there |
| And the boy stares at him too |
| He walks over |
| He needs closure |
