When you look at that sidewalk
What do you see?
I see
A chapter in my life story.
You may see danger.
I see my reflection
Filled with so much anger.
When I see that sidewalk
I see
An item of which I have stared
As I've walked so many times, as the pain I had to bear.
I see
That sad freshman girl
Who is as pretty as a pearl
With a mind so sick and rare
She screams out for help
But no one's there.
She's made out to be a person so bad
But little do they know
She goes home to a terminally ill dad
And a mother who's driven mad.
When I see that sidewalk
I see
The concrete and bricks
Of which I've tripped
And fell.
I see some secrets
That I'll never tell.
When I look at that sidewalk
This is what I see.
When you look at that sidewalk
What do you see?
