You go to school and act like every things cool
When you get home you fall apart
Into the pain and suffering
Into the black hole
Where nothing can help you
You refused to be helped
What’s the point now?
You asked yourself
Why try?
But you know you just want things to be right
The way they’re supposed to be:
No fights, no getting abused
Just a nice place, it’s not coming to you
You have to find it
