I am fighting, ripping apart the people trying to crush me
Dig my teeth into the flesh and scream about the anxiety I am suffering from
Troubling thoughts, turn me rabid
Thinking of killing the bad, but no I just want to live
I'm trying to survive not die, and killing just leads to death in the end
I'm keeping quiet, in favor of destroying the attackers
You can never hear my cries, I am invisible
My heart beats silently, and my cries ring out empty
Kill me, I will scream, and you will rush me
Drag me down, and make me cry
I am only ever seen as the worthless dirt, the useless queer, the forgotten one
I am nowhere yet suffering everywhere
Can you hear me cry when the wind blows
Can you feel my drops of blood against your head when it rains?
Can you see me ripping apart your skin when you skid to a halt
I am fighting
