I was on my lunch break
I almost started crying
For the boy at the top of the bridge
He didn't jump but if he had
He wouldn't be the only one who thought that he had to give in
And you said you didn't have it all that bad
And I said I didn't have it all that bad
But I snuck off to parking lots and playgrounds after dark
My parent's basement while they were asleep
I didn't talk with a lisp
I dressed like all the straight boys did
I didn't talk about who I had kissed
And now you don't have it all that bad
And now I don't have it all that bad
But I don't kiss you at the grocery store
And I don't kiss you at the library
I don't kiss you at the rest stop off the interstate
And I don't kiss you at my parent's house while they are not asleep
I was on my lunch break
I almost started crying
Cause it really does get better if you wait
And there are times that I still feel afraid
But gone are the times when I feel ashamed
And so for all the kids that really have it pretty bad
For all the kids that never got the chance
While maybe I should kiss you at the grocery store
And maybe I should kiss you at the library
And maybe I should kiss you at my parent's house
And maybe I should kiss you at the movies
Maybe I should kiss you when we go out to dinner
And maybe I should kiss you every night before I fall asleep
And maybe I should kiss you at the rest stop off the interstate on the border of Georgia and Tennessee
