Today's my birthday. Hoo fucking ray.
I'm not going back to their house today. That's my present to myself. Bill can do without his favorite punching bag for the day and I'm not going to deal with Ellen's shit and I'm not going to try and sleep on that bed like I don't remember what they did to me in that room and I'm not going to have to walk past that fucking door. I'm going to sit in this library until closing time and then I am going to go out and just walk around all night and then I'm going to school.
I'm not going to spend my fourteenth birthday like I've spent every other day.
Daddy's flown across the ocean
Leaving just a memory
A snapshot in the family album
Daddy, what else did you leave for me?
Daddy, what'd you leave behind for me?
All in all it was just a brick in The Wall
All in all it was all just bricks in The Wall
