Hey You

(HEY YOU

YEAH YOU

SAD KID

WHY ARE YOU SO SAD ALL THE TIME?)

Sad? Surely not I

The makeup on my skin
Hides the scars

Hides the pain

Hides who i am inside

Sad kid, Surely not I

(WHY AREN'T YOU HAPPY, YOU HAVE EVERY REASON TO BE)

My bad let me rephrase my sad individuality,

You see,

What a great idea it is to snap out of ones own sad state

Only when your not held back by agonizing tears of the years of your sad sad go bys

You see

I walk through empty halls without a thought in mind,

i find myself lost,

forgotten,

how could one be forgotten.

You see i walk outside as the wind penetrates my face with its cold bare hands

sending shivers down my spine

WHO AM I

as i walk that cold trail to nowhere.

Round an around and around they go,

when will it ever be enough

When will I be enough?!

Minds racing,

Hearts Pacing,

Hands shaking

and its not erasing

Not erasing the fact that i am here

I AM HERE,

But not a single person hears my voice

not a single person sees me for who i am but,

how could one see me if i cant even see myself.

You see,

i walk home that day,

just like any other day

Only this time every thought is broken and scattered into a trillion pieces

thoughts that cant even emerge into one,

So i stand still

i close my eyes

and my mind tries to compromise that maybe

Maybe you don't have to be enough

I DON'T HAVE TO BE ENOUGH

But that thought soon fades as the darkness snatches away whats left of my sanity

It grabs me by the shoulder and every thought of being older

pulls the trigger and kills whats left of my mortality

ONE THOUGHT,

One simple thought breaks me down till i simply cry

I cry blood, i cry tears

but these tears cant take away the years of the sweet darkness dancing on my tongue

the darkness at which i sung!

The darkness at which was nothing more than a delightful memory

forgotten in the depths of my despair

I am here

But who will be ready to wait

standing by my side

watching till i break

So you,

who cries "Sad kid be happy"

Take a look at yourself, Take a look in the mirror

and decipher

which one of us you can see clearer
