The past is choking me,
This year I couldn't play
Tennis my very best
Because of yesterday.
They didn't feed me
My knee fell apart
I didn't know yesterday
Could break my heart
"Malnutritiion"
The doctors proclaimed
They said my legs
Were not the same
I had torn ligaments
Torn cartiladge too
My knee was shot
There was nothing to do.
The kids here don't see me
They see a skinny awkward kid
They don't ever see my mom
And I don't think they ever did.
They can't see my hair curled straight
And not in tangled up knots
They can't I'm not that way now
Even though I already forgot.
No one asks out the poor kid
No one asks her to dance
No one let's her do anything
And no one gives her a chance.
I might as well still be there
Because no one but me knows I'm not
No remembered to feed me...
I guess they all just forgot.
I thought after I got away
Things wouldn't get any worse
But it didn't even matter at all,
Because yesterday still hurts.
