Don’t you hate it when you’re trapped
All you can do is cry
You’re stressed and depressed
It would be easier just to die.
You can’t confide in anyone
Not that anyone cares
You hate it when you look around
And all you see is pairs.
Your grades are suddenly slipping
Your teachers call home
Parents yell and threaten you
You feel all alone.
No one is there to hug you
Wipe away your tears
Kiss away your pain
Or chase away your fears.
Your friends forget about you
Pretend that your not even there
You always end up hurt
And you wonder why you care.
You wish you could be someone else
Because being you isn’t enough
You can’t do anything right
And life is just too tough.
You talk to your pets
Because they don’t run away
And they are always there for you
At home waiting everyday.
You can scream out loud
And get in some one’s face
But they can’t even see you
It’s like their staring off in space.
All the while you wonder
What’s your purpose in life
As your tears stream down your face
And you pick up the knife.
