It shouldn't of been you
in the accident that day,
For it should've been me.
I'm the one wishing myself dead,
I'm the one wanting out,
it shouldn't of been you.
I want to take your place,
it's unfair, unfathomable
your innocence was to save the world,
it shouldn't of been you.

I don't want to be like them,
I want to be my own,
with my own ideas, memories, thoughts
I don't want to go through the motions,
I don't want to be washed out,
I want to be original.

They all try to look the same
all try to give themselves a name
pick on the boy who is all alone
just because his identity is his own
what has this world come to?
all this wrong that people do
just for the image they want to show
down the evil path they seem to go

The next person you go to hurt
or try to make feel like dirt
instead of trying to look cool
feel for the guy you make look a fool

A cool identity isn’t a need
let those you bully be freed
Your identity should be your own
A better person you will be known.


We need to start to do something about this it is a major problem that i deal with and most kids deal with

Within yet without
Being so close
yet feeling so far
Reach for me
Grab my hand
or I'll slip away
Into the pieces you never put back together
Catch me
Hold me
or I'm doomed–

Jealousy is not something I can easily contain,
It comes in unexpected times and cannot be tamed
When I try to deny, and try to resist,
It only makes it worse, makes everything twist
I end up with regret,
I end up with sorrow,
I need to move on, forget about tomorrow
I'm only causing problems
It's not nearly acceptable,
But you're making me feel unwanted, it's so easily perceptible
uninvited, unloved, and without you,
I know it's in my head, but I wish you'd get a clue
Even though you remind me all the time, my heart's still on a thread
But seeing you with them, with her, with him
makes me feel alone, makes me rage, makes me question myself,
But never turn the page.
