Wonderful

I close my eyes when I get too sad
I think thoughts that I know are bad
Close my eyes and I count to ten
Hope it's over when I open them

I lay on my bed, crying my eyes out. I could remember everything so vividly, and so clearly. My mind was in another world, a world where everything would soon be so wonderful.

I want the things that I had before
Like a Star Wars poster on my bedroom door
I wish I could count to ten
Make everything be wonderful again

I clenched my eyes and the opened them when it stopped for awhile. I looked around my room at everything that had changed. A lot of my things where missing, probably sold. Nothing was ever right anymore, not like it use to be at least. I couldn't have anything I use to have, because we never had any money. Everything was all a mess and I wanted it to be the way it use to be...

Hope my mom and I hope my dad
Will figure out why they get so mad
Hear them scream, I hear them fight
They say bad words that make me wanna cry

The yelling and screaming began again. I shut my eyes and the tears flowed easily. They were always fighting, my dad abusing my mother, and everything was going wrong like usual...

Close my eyes when I go to bed
And I dream of angels who make me smile
I feel better when I hear them say
Everything will be wonderful someday

I heard a knock on the door, and my mother peeked her head in. She had a bruise on her cheek, and she came over to hold me tightly. She told me everything would be better someday, and I felt a bit better. She pulled the covers over my body and kissed me goodnight.

Promises mean everything when you're little
And the world's so big
I just don't understand how
You can smile with all those tears in your eyes
Tell me everything is wonderful now

I closed my eyes, and fell asleep, wondering how possibly, everything could be wonderful someday.

Na na na na na na na
Please don't tell me everything is wonderful now

How could it all be wonderful someday?

I go to school and I run and play
I tell the kids that it's all okay
I like to laugh so my friends won't know
When the bell rings I just don't wanna go home

It was the beginning of summer, and I would be at home for more than I wanted to be. How could I go back to school and just tell Harry and Ron that everything was okay? I wish I could have stayed there over the summer, or with either of them. I'd just have to put up a smile like always...

Go to my room and I close my eyes
I make believe that I have a new life
I don't believe you when you say
Everything will be wonderful someday

Promises mean everything when you're little
And the world is so big
I just don't understand how
You can smile with all those tears in your eyes
When you tell me everything is wonderful now

I don't wanna hear you tell me everything is wonderful now

I clenched my eyes and I cried. Why did it have to be summer? Why did my parents have to hate each other? Why was this all happening to me. Mother promised everything would be wonderful now, but she was wrong... Whenever she looked at me, I could see tears swelling in her eyes. Nothing will every be wonderful...

I don't wanna hear you say
That I will understand someday
No, no, no, no
I don't wanna hear you say
You both have grown in a different way
No, no, no, no
I don't wanna meet your friends
And I don't wanna start over again
I just wanna my life to be the same
Just like it used to be
Somedays I hate everything
I hate everything
Everyone and everything
Please don't tell me everything is wonderful now

Please, Mother, I never wanted anything except for her and Father to get along... but it's too late for that. I wept on my bed, and pulled the covers up to cover my face from her sad eyes. I hated her. I hated Dad. I hated everyone. Nothing will ever be the same...

I don't wanna hear you tell me everything is wonderful now

Everything will be wonderful someday.
