Peggy Sue

I know what it's like to be alone
Sitting in your room
Listening to all those doubts
Your parents have to say to you
And as your head gets all cluttered inside
Try to stay awake
Because everything they say are lies
That's all the sh*t that you ever have to take

So hold in
all your aggressions
Because you're grinding your teeth on down
To the bottom of your chin
It's not easy
Or so damn pleasing
To not laugh at every word they say
As they tell you what to be
You're not alone

And I know what it's like
To be denied
At everything you do
It's not the same reason
Why that makes you change
The things that you once knew
And as your head gets all cluttered inside
Give more than you take
Because everything they say are lies
That's all the sh*t
That you ever have to take

You say you want to
Take off your shoes
Just to walk barefoot
Down the street
Just to be the things
That you can be
Just live for one more week
