For The Suffering

My existence was vain

And everything's existence to cause me strife

They did just that, and gave me pain

School said, "You'll never be smart enough to achieve anything in life."

__

'Friends' would say, "You're so depressed! All you ever do is listen to music!"

Mirrors told me, "They'll never love you when you look like that!"

My life is not a life, so much as a thorn-lined cage!

But you are the music, and what you said to me:

__

Hey there sweetheart, you okay?

Soon everything will be better for you

I'll be here to help you along the way

Just listen to me; you'll make it through

__

You helped to save me; you kept me sane

You block out the world when it wants to drench me in pain
