I don't get it?

by Just Lucy   Apr 2, 2005


I don't understand
why I had to be fat
and why i had to be ugly

i don't understand
why people don't care
or get the fact
That I'm still human
I may be fat and ugly
that doesn't mean I'm a monster
I still have feelings
or is it just that you don't care

don't ever want to see myself
never look within a mirror
to scared of myself
I'm always screaming
and no one is hearing

standing on the stage at a concert
packed crowd
I'm screaming
Screaming until my face goes red
screaming so loud that my lungs go blue
but no one can hear me

same recurring dream
or maybe it's a nightmare
would you notice me hanging
in the highest room of my house
would you get me down
cremate me and throw me somewhere beautiful?

no, you would walk right back out because the smell from me
from my rotting soul
is just to harsh for your precious nose!

just once
i wanna be seen
just once
i don't wanna have to scream
just once
i wanna be real
just once
i wanna live

and now that I've lived, i just wanna die
please save me from myself
cremate me
put me in a field of roses
somewhere i can feel pretty!!
