Bring it on back to the young days when things wasn't so hard
 Playin kickball in the school yard
 The year before kindergarten when memories started at the day care
 All the Little kids used to play there
 We had no worries just hated nap time but fingerpaintin' and playin' tag was fine
 And we would all run around except for this girl
 She stayed in the corner, Yeah her name was Mary Anne
 She missed half of the school days scince the year began
 Never wore a shirt that showed more than her hands
 She rockin' jeans & Long sleeves in like 90 degrees
 You know lil' kids they treat her like she got a disease
 Came in 1 day all her hair was gone
 Said her mamma cut it off cause she did something wrong
 Tears in her eyes when she finally said somethin 
 Usually she would get scared and wouldn't say nothin
 
 Days that went by, she had to cry, wonder why did it happen to me
 Day after day, she slipped away, wonder why did it happen to me
 
 Elementary she got the seat next to me
 Lucky i wasn't mean like the rest could be
 She treated like an outcast wonder how long she could outlast
 Bein alienated by the whole class
 It was still touch and go with the whole school scenario
 In for days out for weeks still scared to speak
 I wonder if that one time she had tried to tell and the teacher shrugged her off like Oh Well
 I wonder if that shut her down
 Maybe she had no one to turn to
 Maybe this little girl didn't know what to do
 We had a project one week me and Mary Anne a team
 So i invited her to my house for ice cream
 She bangin on the door at the house invite her to sit on the couch 
 She looked me in the eyes
 Mary Anne began to cry
 I said what's wrong she said she wanted someone to tell her why
 
 Days that went by, she had to cry,
 wonder why did it happen to me
 Day after day she slipped away, wonder why did it happen to me
 
 After that incident she didn't really  want to talk to me
 I'd see her in the hall 
 Call out but she wouldn't walk with me
 Junior high she got cover up caked up
 You could see the bruises underneath the make - up
 Stories to make up people askin question now
 She breakin down but still no confessions now
 She walk around dazed out lost in another land spaced out
 And as days go by she grows more distant
 Teachers barely aware of her existence
 She in and out more out than in
 And one day i'm in class
 The ambulance pass screechin
 Down by the artroom off to the right in the bathroom
 They found Mary Anne on the floor
 A bottle next to her 
 Said she took like 50 pills or more
 And left a note that said she couldnt handle it no more
 
 Days that went by, she had to cry,
 wonder why did it happen to me
 Day after day she slipped away, wonder why did it happen to me
