Based on (and some of the lyrics are in this, obviously changed because it has she/her pronouns in the song) the song above. It's really catchy and I recommend you listen to it while you read this.
The "I's", "myself's," "my's," etc., in the song are Virgil's thoughts he kept inside.
—————————————————
It's time.
As I went to the rooftop,
there I see.
Virgil went the highest tower in all the city. It was abandoned, of course, but the city didn't bother to fix it. Being known for people coming to the roof and jumping off. They all had there reasons, and Virgil tried to go everyday. He often couldn't go mainly since he usually hung out with his friends, who were oblivious to Virgil's situation as they possibly could be. Obliblous to his anxiety (well, they knew about that), the bullying, his home life (his dad was barely home, mainly drinking after his work, and had little time to take care of Virgil), and, most importantly, his thoughts that drove him to do this.

This time, however, a kid around his age was already there. Standing near the edge of the tower, ready to jump off into the darkness.

There was a boy with good hair here before me.
Virgil took a few steps forward, closer than he was originally standing. He recognized the boy as his close friend, Roman. He couldn't let Roman do this.

Despite myself, I went and screamed,
"Hey, don't do it......please." Virgil screamed out at his friend. Wait a minute, what did I just say? I couldn't care less either way. To be honest, I'm somewhat mad. This was my opportunity missed.

Roman turned and looked back at him with a small, sad smile. "You've probably heard it before. I really thought he might be the one. But then he told me he was done." Virgil was mad. He couldn't do let Roman do it for a reason like that!
"Are you serious? I just can't believe that for some stupid reason you got here before me!" Roman turned, tears in his eyes. "Are you upset 'cause you can't have what you wanted? You're lucky you've never gotten robbed of anything!" A tear fell down Virgil's face as he said the last part.

"I'm feeling better. Thank you, my dear friend." With a bow, Roman took a few steps away from the ledge, and turned away and vanished into thin air. A few seconds later, Virgil walked out of the tower himself, following what his friend had probably done. Virgil took a deep breath. Surely, he must try tomorrow.

Virgil did go the next day.
Alright today's the day

Or so I thought.

He started to take off his shoes, the petite boy noticing a tall boy his age standing near the edge. He sighed, slipped his shoes back on, and walked to the boy, who suspiciously looked like his friend Logan. He couldn't let one of his closest friends do this.
Just as I took both my shoes off
There was a boy taller than me.
Despite myself, I go and scream.
The boy told me his woes.
Logan turned and looked at Virgil as he pushed back his glasses as he told Virgil his troubles. "You've probably heard it all before. Everyone ignores me, everyone lies. I don't fit in with anyone here." Virgil clenched his hands into fists.
"For gosh sake please! Are you serious? I just can't believe for some stupid reason you got here before me! 'Cause even so, your still loved by everyone at home! There's always someone waiting for you at home!" Virgil said, and Logan took a few steps away from the ledge.

'They're waiting for me." He said with a smile and happy tears, then soon turned away and vanished into tin air. Just like Roman did the day before. Virgil sighed and left the building.
