He's just like me (Revised)

I have hidden this deep inside
In people I could never confide
The way they hurt me
Why couldn't you just see
You couldn't see past their lies
You never heard me cries
My pleas landed on def ears
I shed these unyielding tears
All I have is the pain
The misery I could never contain
I have found another who would help me
He is everything I could never be
Why can't you see him he's right here
He's in perfect view crystal clear
But he is the darkness
He is nothing but reckless
everyone he could take
Its my world he would shake
He would help like you never did
He would help even though I'm just a kid
He hated what i hated he wants what I want
Children that would always tease and taunt
Now me they would never haunt
Because its now to late
For he has sealed their fate
Open your eyes why cant you see
That he is me...
