Irreplaceable
Do you get upset when they say the things they do,
Do you get angry when they throw stuff at you,
Do you get so depressed you wish you weren’t here
You wish the kids would disappear.
They approach you name-calling and shoving you
Breaking you and now you feel see through
They give you busted lips and black eyes
The suicidal thoughts you feel inside
The people who you told coughed on it
Then here comes the cut wrist or the pill popping
The drinking came into play
This all happened on that day
But maybe you just wanna fit in with the crowd
Trying to tune the world out
With your earbuds in, trying to be make friends
They don’t like you and they spread rumors.
They don’t understand, they are abusers,
Do you see the tunnel you use to see
Remember it was lit with all your smiles and memories
Now the same tunnel is empty and dark.
Your world feels like it’s fallen apart.
But just remember no matter how bad it seems
It gets better at the seams.
You’re not alone and even when you feel at your worst
You’re irreplaceable
