I know you see me staring through you up there

Open your eyes and watch me scream for your attention. 

I scream through my silence, a silence that was never there before.

I talked too much and would get detention for that,

but now I can't even open my mouth, just Open Your Eyes.

Tears form behind my glasses, but you choose not to see.

Girls tease me between classes, but you choose not to see.

There are eight signs of depression, and I show at least six,

Just please open your fucking eyes and you'll see me suffering.

My grades drop, my silence grows, my tears fall without a reason

I can't sleep, I can't think of why I should even bother living

Just open your eyes and see me, save me from myself,

from the people I called my "friends"

Stop hiding from me, pretending you don't know I'm no longer me.

Open your eyes and keep me from destroying myself.
