Outcast

Inside I know there's two of me

Can I conquer this duality

I try to fight this demon seed

If these walls could talk

You'd hear a piercing scream

(Dear Classmates)

Can I ask what it is like

To win at everything

Some of us were born to lose

'Least that's how it seems

Never had a love that lasts

I'm an outcast looking in

Never had a friend in class

Gave all I had to give

This day might be my last

And after class

I'll settle the score

(Dear Parents)

You know that you failed me

At just about everything

Too busy fighting there were nights

I couldn't even breathe

You know at nine

I just wanted to be loved

But now at seventeen

I know I'm way past that,

I need company in suffering

Bad behavior up to bad parenting -

Oh tell me father where have you been

It's gonna be the worst thing

You've ever seen -

I call it proof, you call it sin

(Dear Teacher)

We could've been more

Than you gave us credit for

Everyone can do something

And in home room you will soon know that

Fuck you! We're capable and you turned it all to salt

Your bitter show of doubt know that what I do is all your fault

We are all capable of something good or bad

You heard them pick on us - didn't do a thing

You're pushing me too far... way too far

Inside there still are two of me

I can conquer this duality

I try to fight this demon seed

If these walls could talk

You'd see what I mean
