My family sent me away
To a place
Hoping i would get better
But how was i supposed to get better
When even my own family didn't want me
My family sent me away
They locked me somewhere
That didn't care about me
With a tube up my nose
Being pumped full of chemicals
That were supposed to make me happy
But the only thing that could make me happy
Was the thing that sent me to this place
It felt like being locked in a cage
I was filled to the brim with rage
It was like being an animal put on display
Eyes were on me every second of the day
They watched me eat
They watched me sleep
Everything was on repeat
All because my family sent me away.
