Thunderhead 1973 -1982

              


Do you know, I have this condition
Teasing makes me cry.

Yesterday, I was so tired, and the boys started in on me
And pretty soon I was biting my tongue.

I know I should know
But I just don’t until after it hurts.

So crying is just one of those things I count on
Basic to my existance, like eating or dreaming
It builds up and then suddenly
I’m crying

No one reason, just crying.

You know how it is?
You say
Just leave me the hell alone!
But really
It’s “don’t go..”

Don’t leave me
Don’t just stand there and watch me cry
