A poem a day keeps depression away
Self expression makes it all okay
Emotions aren't that scary
When you let them out voluntarily
A poem a day keeps depression away
I guess I better start writing

The real reason I don't go to the doctors about my mental health, is because I'm scared they will tell me nothing is wrong.

I'm friends with the kids who smoke cigarettes
Instead of marijuana
The ones who drink vodak
instead of margaritas
The kids who wear all black
And pick pocket lighters
The ones who find home under bridges
And Mark them with graffiti
I'm friends with the kids who go to jail for joy riding thier parents Jeep
And not for getting into fights
We don't sleep at night
But instead we ride
Midnight fries at McDonald's
And 3am confessions
I'm friends with the weirdos
The druggies
The kids who listen to halsey
Before we listen to fetty
The kids who go to prom
Just to sneak out the back
And you may hate us
But we don't care
Because I'm friends with the people who are free
I'm friends with people who are happy

How dare you tell me that he doesn't need to change
How dare you teach your children that this is ok
How dare you bring silence into the room
And pretend you don't know exactly what to do

How dare you be surprised when we stand up for whats right
how dare you try to silence us and tell us not to fight
how dare you be just as bad as he is
how dare you
