Mom, I'm so confused and I don't know what to do Jesse beat my brother up because he was a Jew They saw me in the alley before I ran away They told me not to tell you but I had to anyway I'll be there and I'll help you know the right thing for you It's my job to keep you safe from hurtful things that people do 'Cause I love you and I'll hold you with the strength to see you through In your pain and in your fear, I'll be there Mom, I'm so confused, I thought Sarah was our friend But she said some things about the love between you and Diane She said, "Two women can't be married. You should try to get away." She told me not to tell you but I had to anyway I'll be there and I'll help you know the right thing for you It's my job to keep you safe from hurtful things that people do 'Cause I love you and I'll hold you with the strength to see you through In your pain and in your fear, I'll be there I'll be there when someone hurts you out of ignorance and fear You can always come home and find sanctuary here Wherever you go, my love will whisper in your ear I'll be there, I'll be there Mom, I'm so confused and I feel like I could die I don't feel safe with grandpa and I think I might know why He said, "Touching makes you feel good and it's just a game we play." He told me not to tell you, but I had to anyway I'll be there and I'll help you know the right thing for you It's my job to keep you safe from hurtful things that people do 'Cause I love you and I'll hold you with the strength to see you through In your pain and in your fear, I'll be there I'll be there when someone hurts you out of ignorance and fear You can always come home and find sanctuary here Wherever you go, my love will whisper in your ear I'll be there, I'll be there I'll be there and I'll help you know the right thing for you It's my job to keep you safe from hurtful things that people do 'Cause I love you and I'll hold you with the strength to see you through In your pain and in your fear, I'll be there In your pain and in your fear, I will always hold you near In your pain and in your fear, I'll be there
