I told you that I didn't like the way you talked to me. You told me to grow up and not be so sensitive. I told my teacher what was going on, why I couldn't focus on my test. She said excuses aren't welcome here. She said grow up and do your best. I told my mom what you told me. She said I heard you wrong. She said there's no way you would say that. She said grow up and go along. I told so many people... But nobody would care to listen... I sit here with an empty bottle... ...No one hears the voice of children.

What I Told Them
I told you that I didn't like the way you talked to me. You told me to grow up and not be so sensitive. I told my teacher what was going on, why I couldn't focus on my test. She said excuses aren't welcome here. She said grow up and do your best. I told my mom what you told me. She said I heard you wrong. She said there's no way you would say that. She said grow up and go along. I told so many people... But nobody would care to listen... I sit here with an empty bottle... ...No one hears the voice of children.
