Coming out

Coming out of the dark
looking down at my arm
like its a work of art

i know what will be said
my friends are gonna kill me
i know I'm gonna be dead

cover it up with a long sleeve shirt
knowing questions will be asked
knowing its gonna hurt

i hear the names they call me
i see the looks on the teachers faces
unfortunately this is how its gonna be

i skipped school today
knowing my dad will be pissed
i already know what he will say

what the hell is wrong with you?'
all you do is mope around
all depressed and blue!'

i can hear it now
the neighbors will hear
cuz hes always so loud

if i don't get hit
ill be lucky this time
hopefully hell get over it

riding the bus home
knowing he'll be there
waiting all alone

i start to cry
my friends don't say a word
all they do is sigh

the bus slows down
to a steady stop
looking around with a frown

starting to walk
feels like a death march
just waiting for the talk

that very day
three years since
was the day t went away

no one cared
no one asked
cant believe he even dared

now i just can't believe
that i am happy
didn't know this could happen to me

i won't make the same mistakes
cuz believe it or not
i know what Steps to take
