I learned early on
When to keep my mouth shut
That was never her style
Oh, she talked back.
No, she didn't take his shit
He tried to put her in her place
But she refused to fit

She got the hell out of California
I took the room she left behind
I started to understand
Why Heidi had to hide
 
Old friends called her crazy
When she finally had enough
But deep down they fucking knew
He had it coming
You can't treat friends like that
We all felt it
cnd that's a fucking fact
 
She got the hell out of California,
cnd I fled the room she left behind,
Now I understand
Why Heidi had to hide
 
There was so much I didn't know,
We all just cowered to someone with the most fragile ego
This coast let you down
But you dealt with it the best way you knew how
 
cnd I gave myself a tattoo to honor her
“Driven by suffering” - well I guess you were
 
I believe you, Heidi, don't hide
