They say stay strong
But that's all a lie.
Only the strong have the courage to die,

Maybe it's selfish this is true
But don't I deserve to be selfish too?
No that's right I must never be,

I must suffer but never frown
just because I chose to be me.
Why should I be happy just to be alive?

Why should I be in this world of the half dead race,
Where hate is just a social norm
And reality is just a pitiful taunting storm.

If your not a carbon copy of your peers
You are left to suffer from your fears.
So maybe I'm weak or maybe I'm strong

All I know is I don't belong.
I'm trying to live I really am,
But my hourglass is almost out of sand.

So maybe I'll jump or forget to swim,
Because my future is looking grim.
