Lyric discussion by deadpet876 

Coming from an abusive home, this song strongly indicates abuse emotionally,and most horrifically sexually.so called "four letter word" isn't the good, it's the "f" word denoted by that cross word puzzel starting to grate.. going on "we smell rats in the kitchen" indicates a family member knows about whats going on and does nothing... this is all clearly tipped off by the verse proceeding:

Think tank, think rescue Simon says, Etch-a-Sketch Some encoded message only he would get Quickly now 'Cause this is not how it ends"!

To wrap it up, when she asks "little bird where have you gone"? this would be that she or someone she knew was liberated from the abuse and no longer needs an imaginary outlet to stop the festering tentions of on going abuse..

This song is pretty self explanitory to those who have been abused, perfect song to help others know they aren't alone.
