Shattered
Waking up to this reflection everyday
The reaper on my shoulder shouts
You’re fucking ugly, pathetic, stupid and fat
Searching for peace, well there’s the razor
Walking down the halls to only hear whispers
Trying to talk but no one‘s listening
So I just shutout and keep to myself
Starting to think like I’m just invisible
Coming home to a family that won’t speak to me
When they do it’s only because they feel sorry
All day in my room, reading, watching tv and playing video games
A lot of nothing that means nothing to anybody
Everyday loathing turns to me getting picked on
Always pushed and shoved because I’m not perfect
I just sit and take abuse till they take things to far
Fighting back when they punch and kick me
Roll myself into a ball at night as I sit and cry
Grab a notebook then jot down a list of targets
Never think I would actually do it, but if I did…
These people would be the one’s I blame for my actions
I wake to a day that feels different from the others
Having a good breakfast, I even say hello and goodbye
Talk with people even though they roll their eyes at me
It’s all because I’m at peace with what I must do
Everything goes silent, alone in the house
I take a knife then run up to my room
Push the tip to my finger to draw blood
Write down “I’m sorry” on the walls
I look at my refection for the last time
The reaper has returned for me
Deep gashes across each wrist, I hold them up for he can see
The vision morphs into my father as I fall into his arms
The reaper on my shoulder shouts
You’re fucking ugly, pathetic, stupid and fat
Searching for peace, well there’s the razor
Walking down the halls to only hear whispers
Trying to talk but no one‘s listening
So I just shutout and keep to myself
Starting to think like I’m just invisible
Coming home to a family that won’t speak to me
When they do it’s only because they feel sorry
All day in my room, reading, watching tv and playing video games
A lot of nothing that means nothing to anybody
Everyday loathing turns to me getting picked on
Always pushed and shoved because I’m not perfect
I just sit and take abuse till they take things to far
Fighting back when they punch and kick me
Roll myself into a ball at night as I sit and cry
Grab a notebook then jot down a list of targets
Never think I would actually do it, but if I did…
These people would be the one’s I blame for my actions
I wake to a day that feels different from the others
Having a good breakfast, I even say hello and goodbye
Talk with people even though they roll their eyes at me
It’s all because I’m at peace with what I must do
Everything goes silent, alone in the house
I take a knife then run up to my room
Push the tip to my finger to draw blood
