Mary

Ring at six, the day begins, she stumbles down the stairway

Porridge on, “I won’t be long”

To Dad sat in his chair

Shoves it down, let's take the town and make this week a wonder

Better than the one before but she knows it won't be so

Her train approaches

Will they notice

Should she miss this one and start the week alone

On the way to class and so it starts, she'll play the jester

Pushed around, ignored, let down

Their laughs are at, not with

So she bites back but she falls flat

They say they’re only teasing

Made the fool, that's life at school

What a way to treat your friend

She screams in the shower

Lost all of her power

Keep face, she'll leave no trace, not even in her home
