She Only Wanted To Be Happy

Words, words

B***h and W***e

The girl runs away

She slams the door

She takes a knife

And cuts her skin

Remembering how screwed up her life has been

She leans to the toilet

Throws up to be thin

At school all she has is a grin

She cuts, cuts, cuts some more

People call her emo, people laugh at her face

But they haven't even tried to be in her place

her dad just died, her mum has depression,

her brother has to go through a therapy session

why can't people see? That grin is a lie

Everything's done for her, her life's slowly fading by,

Bloods dripping on the floor, she's screaming in pain

She can't eat because that means more weight to gain

She wishes to be perfect, she says it's not fair

She cuts it all off, her soul has been broken

But she never told anyone, her words never spoken

She takes a rope, hangs herself in the dark

She no longer has a beating heart

Her friends fall to the ground

When they hear "she is dead"

Her brother cries as he sleeps in her bed

She is gone

She is gone

Just because of people, making fun

She's buried on a Saturday

People start crying,

Just because that one girl stopped trying.

So before judging someone on their weight or clothes

their laugh, their talk, their hair or nose

Just take a moment to realise and see

Everyone is not always who they seem to be
