sensitive kid

i try being sweet

it's very deep in me

now i can only see red on red

my mom's going out with my best friends' dad

she talking loud i can't believe what she said

a sensitive kid

they sold the house

left photo albums there

no silver ware while paper walls were bare

i called all my friends

'come over! come one

come all!'

'let's get a crowd here for one last hoorah!'

a sensitive kid

who made me

a sensitive kid

the message was bleak

my brother pounded it in me

you climb it up or you cut it down

this is your family tree

i know you were born with a heart of gold

but

i want a purple heart that cannot dissolve

a sensitive kid

don't call me

a sensitive kid

i can't tell you why you should a known it

sensitive kids start acting like a grown up
