Johny Craig David

It’s another day at school and he’s just walking out the door
Got his rucksack on his back and his feet dragging on the floor.
Always late but when he’s questioned he can’t think of what to say.
Hides the bruises from the teachers hoping that they go away
Even though his mum and dad they both got problems of their own.
Caught in a catch 22 but he’d still rather be at home
Cries himself to sleep and prays when he wakes up things might have changed
But everything’s still the same.

CHORUS
(But didn’t you say) You always said that I should speak up…mmmm
But it seems like all the things you said to me before meant nothing at all.
Because…
I keep telling you that Johnny’s hittin’ me,
that’s why I’m late for school.
(But you never listen) Instead you always seem to end
up blaming me for things I didn’t do. (For what its worth)
I didn’t even wanna tell you anything in case it made things worse.
(Just so you know) Every time, I say that Johnny’s hittin’ me.
Hey mum and dad it hurts.

Everyday keeps on repeating like a record on replay
Slowly getting off the bus with Johnny waiting at the gates.
Like a friend he’ll smile and wave at him.
While calling out his name put his arm around his neck
Whisper now gimme all your change
Too afraid to make a scene or plead with him to let him go.
He just takes whatever’s coming feels the pain with every blow.
Tries in vain to make himself be heard as soon as he gets home.
But everything’s still the same.
