歌曲歌詞
When I was nine
I learned survival
Taught myself not to care
I was my single good companion
Taking my comfort there
Up in my room
I planned my conquests
On my own
Never asked for a helping hand
No one would understand
I never asked the pair that fought below
Just in case they said no
Pity the child who has ambition;
Knows what he wants to do
Knows that hell never fit the system
Others expecting to
Pity the child who knew his parents
Saw them fight
Saw their love die before his eyes
Pity the child that wise
He never asked
Did I cause your distress
Just in case they said Yes
When I was twelve my father moved out
Left with a whimper
Not with a shout
He made it perfectly clear
That I was a fool and probably queer
Fool that I was
I thought this would bring
Those he had left closer together
She made a move the moment he crawled away
I was the last the woman told
She never let her bed get cold
Someone moved in
I shut my door
Someone to treat her just the same way as before
I had my game to play
I had the skill and all the hunger
Easy to get away
Pity the child with no such weapons
No defense no escape from the ties that bind
Always a step behind
I never called to tell her all Id done
I was only her son
Pity the child but not forever;
Not if he stays that way
He can get all he ever wanted
If hes prepared to beg
Pity instead the careless mother
What she missed what she lost when she let me go
And I wonder does she know
A crazy thing to do
Just in case she said Who
