Age 10, you're supposed to have friends.

Age 12, everyone like the butt.
But for me, I liked to cut.
Age 13, teenage years start.
But for me, I wanted a bullet to my heart.
Age 14, high schools here, so everything's more lame.
But for me, it stay the same.
Age 15, I'm still moving along.
And these battles have been long.
7 years of my life I've missed.
Could be 8, if I still exist.
