The kid. the girl

He's the kid with the piercings
on his lip, nose and brow
He's the kid they all laugh at
while he walks down the halls

She's the girl everyone talks about
starting rumors here and there
She's the girl who they throw stuff at
as she sits in the corner

He's the kid with the tattoos
covering his body
He's the kid no one talks to
not even the teachers dare

She's the girl with the scars
going up and down her arms
She's the girl who has so much pain
she tries to die every night

He's the kid who no one talks to
really he's a good kid
He's the kid who has a horrible story
about how he grew up

She's the girl who gets beaten
every single night
She's the girl who has a story to tell
but no one will take time to listen

He's the kid that everyone is scared of
he wouldn't hurt a fly
He's the kid that wears black clothes
and carries crosses and chains

She's the girl everyone hates
because she dresses like a goth
She's the girl that wears black make-up
to cover the black eyes

He's the kid who acknowledges the girl
She's the girl who acknowledges the kid
They are brother and sister
living this life

If it wasn't for each other
they would both be gone
They are the only ones that care
for one another
