MEMORIES OF THE GIRL NEXT DOOR

ON THE INSIDE SHE WAS IN PAIN

ON THE OUTSIDE SHE WAS PERFECT

I HATED WHAT SHE WAS

OR WHAT I THOUGHT SHE WAS

EVERY TIME I HEARD ABOUT HER PERFECT LITTLE

I JUST WANTED TO HIT HER

HERES ME DEALING WITH A WHOLE BUNCH OF PROBLEMS

AND THEN HER LITTLE MISS PERFECT

HER PERFECT CLOTHES

HER PERFECT HAIR

HER PERFECT SKIN

HER PERFECT...LIFE

THEN I READ HER JOURNAL

I DIDN'T WANT BUT IT WAS CALLING MY NAME

I GUESS I WANTED TO FIND SOME DIRT ON LITTLE MISS PERFECT

I LOOKED INSIDE

I READ THE FIRST COUPLE LINES

SHE WAS BEING SEXUALLY ABUSED

SHE WANTED TO DIE

AFTER SCHOOL I HEARD ON THE NEWS

THAT SHE COMMITED SUICIDE

SHE SHOT HERSELF

I CRIED

I COULD'VE DONE SOMETHING

I COULD'VE SAID SOMETHING

BUT I DIDN'T

NOW SHE HAD TO DIE

BECAUSE I WAS TO SCARED TO SAY ANYTHING

I GUESS WHAT I'M TRYING IS

THAT IF YOU KNOW SOMEONE IS IN DANGER

DO SOMETHING

DON'T WAIT TILL ITS TO LATE

OR YOU'LL REGRET IT

I KNOW I DO
