You call her by name You him by name You call her by her name too But me I am that boy
Since the Twelfth of Jan You haven't spoken to me And today when we did speak it wasn't calm, I heard hatred and anger As if I was interrupting your day and I made it go sour Not Once have you said my name Not once you would you acknowledge my presence
Not Mentioned as if I died and all you see is merely a ghost Not talked to as if I am an unwelcome guest And When talked to nothing but anger
I am that boy, not a son I am that boy, not kin My name is no longer what was given to me It is not mentioned by your lips to me Like speaking them would bring about a plague No all I ever heard you say to refer me was "That boy"
Feel like crying but I must stay strong.... What do they say? "It Gets better" well let's hope it does for my sake....
