6 AM
The day begins
I'm forced to walk
To school again
Can't take the bus
Cuz it ain't safe
Can't feel the love
When they're talking hate
How come you're different?
Why can't you change?
It's a different district
But it feels the same
I can't explain it
Guess I'm born this way
I do my best
To hideaway
Lunch by myself
In the stall
I found my name
Carved in the wall
They make a slur
Without a thought
How much it hurts
And they're never caught
What can I do
When I'm all alone
No friends at school
And a violent home
Nowhere to run
No I can't hide
I wish someone
Would save my life
Won't you look in my eyes
Can't you see that I'm human?
No matter how hard I try
The words cut right through me
All I ever wanted was love
But I guess I don't deserve it enough
I don't understand why they treat me this way
Words rolling off a tongue
Hit me harder than a shot from a gun
I wish I could lie and say I'm okay
It sticks like glue
I wouldn't do that to you
Cuz I know that words
Can hurt
Another day
Another fall
Can't blame the system
It's not their fault
Can't see the trouble
In poking fun
Guess every litter's
Got to have a runt
Someone to take it
When they're blowing off steam
But I never wanted it
To be me
Can't you see
I'm bout to fall apart
I wish you'd save me
And have some heart
When you look in my eyes
Can't you see that I'm human?
No matter how hard I try
The words cut right through me
All I ever wanted was love
But I guess I don't deserve it enough
I don't understand why they treat me this way
Words rolling off of a tongue
Hit me harder than a shot from a gun
I wish I could lie and say I'm okay
But it sticks like glue
I wouldn't do that to you
Cuz I know that words
Can hurt
All I ever wanted was love
But I guess I don't deserve it enough
I don't understand why they treat me this way
Words rolling off of a tongue
Hit me harder than a shot from a gun
I wish I could lie and say I'm okay
But it sticks like glue
I wouldn't do that to you
Cuz I know that words
Can hurt
