Ignore
You see it happen
Why don't you stop it?
You just keep walking
Cause of course
That'll help!
You don't even know the pain
They go through everyday
Afraid to go home
If they can ever call
It that
You pretend like nothing happens
Act as if everything's okay
But really...
It's not!
They're just too afraid to say
So go on, just ignore them
Maybe one day you'll see
That you'll wish you could
Go back and say
"You are safe with me"
