Pearl Jam – Why Go

She scratches a letter
Into a wall done of stone
Maybe someday
Another child
Won’t feel as alone as she does

It’s been dual years
And counting
Since they put her in this place
She’s been diagnosed
By some foolish fuck
And mommy agrees
Why go home?
Why go home?
Why go home…

She seems to be stronger
But what they wish her to be is weak
She could play pretend
She could join a game
She could be another clone

Why go home?

What we taught me
Put me here
Don’t come visit
Mommy dear
