Growing up we were told we were better the they say

Like everyone told Lies by calling us names

Like the words just slipped out

Then teachers try to get justice

But that so called friend turned into a nightmare

And his parent could care less

They tell you to grow up and move on

Cry me a river

I’ll build a bridge

And you’ll get over it

Then when we finally realise

We can’t get over it

It doesn’t go away

We mask the pain

Hide the pain with our band aids

That you call a smile

Act like you’re Ok

When really inside you just feel worse

But they will never notice

You’ll try to fit in again

Then someone will realise that you’re faking that smile

So that person calls you a fake

You’re labeled so all your friends stay away

Like you’re some contagious disease

It just pushes you farther from the world

So you sit there in your cozy coffin

Planning to shut it close

Grab the ‘tic tacs'

Drink you’re ‘soda'

Drag a ‘pen’ across your wrist

Then close your eyes

Do what people want you to do

Why would you fall for that?

What made you believe them?

Did the Mirror bully you again?

Just imagine some how surviving that?

They don’t stop when you try

They’ll spread your story

Still hurt you

There is never an easy way out

Your family will start to control you more

You can’t use the bathroom with out the door open

Don’t try that again

Oh no you can’t be alone

You did this to yourself

No one will ever leave you alone

No one will ever feel your pain

No one will understand

No one

Then you get to wondering

Why?

Why me?

Why doesn’t anyone believe me?

Why does the world fall around me?

Why do I deserve this?

Then the voices talk

You are better than what they say

Everyone is telling Lies by calling you names

The words just slip out

The teachers tried to get justice

Your so called friend became a nightmare

But his parents could care less

Grow up and move on

Cry a river

I’ll build you a bridge

Then you’ll get over it

I wrote this a million years ago
But I found it
I posted this on Facebook gor my family to see
And My Mother was like
This is making me Look Bad
And told me to delete it

But I didnt
