If I tell you

if i tell you
i am angry
at you
for force feeding me
will you listen to me

if i tell you
i am not happy
at being
left alone with the tv
will you listen to me

if i tell you
i am scared
of the uncle
down the street
will you listen to me

if i tell you
i am in love
with the girl next door
will you listen to me

will you listen to me
an angry child
an unhappy child
a scared child
a child in love
and believe

if i tell you
when i tell you
will you listen to me
