What Would I Be Doing?

Take my hand
And close your eyes
Show me what it is to cry
I've been waiting for this moment
Hoping it would come
I've been wishing for better
For a long time now

Some people don't know
But I have my fears
They think I'm sweet, polite,
And other things too
But they don't know how much
I need to cry

They think I'm strong
I could prove them so wrong
I guess I am
Or can be too

I live in fear
Hold my family dear
My neighbours intimidate me
I'm only seventeen

They watch me in my back garden
I stay clear of that now
Even in my front
They have to come out
Just to check what I'm doing
What would I be doing?
Taking the bins out maybe
Not anything crazy
But they still have to watch
