roses for lost


Roses are red
Violets are blue
You bullied this kid
Now his death is on you
His lil brother is two
And he's got a sister on the way
He was a freak in school
And they thought he was gay
His dad died in nam
And he can't talk to his mom
The easy way out 
He knows won't take long
So he slit his wrists 
And turned the water on
So now on this day
Remember their names
They decided to quit
And you were to blame.
