To conform is to hide
To stand is out is to be alive
We are judged by the eyes
of people of the wish to die

We are told to be fools
because we didnt get the highest gpa in school
we are told to be rude
when we are being honest to the cruel

We want to change
yet i see no action to explain
the sad reaction in society's reign
to be controlled and told to obey

The kids are told to look as pleased
yet we are being judged and teased
our weight isn't under 90 so we are obese
so we try to throw it up, over the toilet on our knees.

we are taught to be contained
our actions must be behaved
yet someone in the crowd must rage
to take a stand for us today

society is falling apart at the seams
and most of the problems effect us teens
and the struggle has yet to be seen
until you see all of the blood that we bleed

we are just children
and we are told we must make the right decision
if we don't then our life will be different
no house no car no life to live in

but we are teens
who have uncontrollable needs
we have unexpected mood swings
we don't understand most things  

but how would we know
how our life is going to go
when our parents do not show
the love we need to grow

we are just teens
most of us are unseen
so the blood that we bleed
should fix everything


right?
Love is just a word that has no meaning
It sneaks into your heart with plans of deceiving
It's used by evil, meant for good
Never to know if they ever could
Hope is just a word to heal the broken
To make them believe the doors are open
Help them forget about the scars and their hurt
But when they fall it only makes it worse
Happy is just a word that hides the pain
Just a smile to hide the rain
To make them think that you're okay
That you're strong enough to survive the day
Forever is just a word that makes us cry
That makes us think we'll never die
That loved ones will always be by our side
Thinking that we'll never have to say goodbye
Words are just things
That people never mean
Just giving us false hope
To make us believe
That everything will be okay
But yet there's always someone crying
At the end of the day
There are tears in my eyes
I'm looking toward the sky
Will I ever be up there
Soaring with pride?
There's an ache in my chest
My eyes I just cannot rest
How can I sleep peacefully
When your not near my nest
There's an urge in my mind
Myself I must find
Is today finally the day
When I soar through the sky
I pick up my wings
The wind starts to sing
I begin to rise
Air whistles beneath
I'm floating through the cloud
There's no way I'm coming down
I find you in my soul
On my face there is no longer a frown
I will never win
with you under skin
Creeping into my every thought
Even if I tired to hate you, I could not
You know me better than I do
Something I thought could never be true
Will you hurt me
Look me in the eye
Tell me these beautiful things
That will soon turn into lies
You hold the key
That unlocks me heart
But will you throw that key away
Tearing it apart
How do I know you're telling me the truth
I've been told so many lies
I don't think there's any proof
What will make you realize
I've been broken to many times
For you to come and fix me now
You're only remembered to be forgotten
Loved to be hated
Needed to be unwanted
Agreed to debated
He only want me so I could hurt
To stay is to leave me deserted
A cruel game he plays
Leaving me yearning for the words he'll never say
Never loving could keep me safe
But sadly you're the one I'll never replace
Always have your spot in my heart
No matter how many times your year it apart
I wish you were here
So I could pull you near
Hug me so tight
That I felt like I would die
I loved you to death
And I still do
And when you're gone I still think of you
When my heart aches
My eyes betray
Memories of you escape
And roll down my face
Your missing in my world
But you'll never be replaced
I was your second best
But nonetheless
I tried so hard
To win your heart
It's all fun and games
Until someone gets blamed
For a heart they didn't break
From all the ugly words you say
Now I'm torn apart
From heart to soul
Your feeling for me are so small
And mine were just too old
My love was so strong
But only I was not
I loved you for so long
I suppose you forgot
Maybe you knew
That everything you would do would rip me to shreds
And now our love is dead
