Alice Don't Jump

Locked away in a childrens home
For kids who could not listen
No normal childrens home
Oh no, it was a ghetto
Alice and me and all the girls
Abused, mortified, isolations, time out
At night some sexual abuse, reward:
A nice cold shower

Don't talk about it Alice
Don't tell a word
They get you and they hurt you
The same they did to me
Please Alice let's be silent
So we can stay alive

Don't talk about it Alice
Don't tell a word
They get you and they hurt you
The same they did to me
Ohh Alice why did you go?
Ohh Alice I miss you so!

The shrink was having a blast
Using all the girls available
Just like that he could
Do whatever he liked
And nobody cared and nobody talked about it
Afraid of isolation
Afraid to even breathe
To keep us calm some tranquilizers
But Alice starts to talk

She talked about ending her life
Because Alice then knew
It was the only thing left to do
We went up on the high house
Only 16 floors she said
She looked me in the eyes and told me
It's time for me to go
I can't stay here anymore
She jumped without a cry or shout
And left me on that roof alone
I could not follow her
Am I a coward now?

Don't talk about it Alice
Don't tell a word
They get you and they hurt you
The same they did to me
Please Alice let's be silent
So we can stay alive

Don't talk about it Alice
Don't tell a word
They get you and they hurt you
The same they did to me
Ohh Alice why did you go?
Ohh Alice I miss you so!
