It's You

by Ava M. 

Grew up your whole life learning that no one cares. 
7 billion angry people and their mean faces
but you just brushed off their vicious stares

People always tell you, 
Life just ain't fair, 
Child holding a cup of change askin if you got any to spare.
But there's people who have everything and still want more, 
Don't realize they are disgusting 
Don't give a shit about the people who are in pain, alone, or poor. 

Now you're trying to get to the top but someone keeps pushin you down  
standing over you, eyes narrowed with a disapproving frown
You give in and forget what it's like to be 
someone who gives not just one fuck but three
it's easier this way, no more trouble inside,
but after time you realize that's just another lie

You're disgusted in yourself also,
but it's too late to go back 
you've gotten used to it now
and you've joined the pack

Now you gotta take action, and change what they've done,
you gotta go back, fix the world 
cause now they're not the only ones
oh god you gotta fight
fix their mistakes,
stand strong against them
but you finally break 

All those years of being told that nobody cares,
gets into your mind 
and your happiness just tears.
everyone's watching you just to see you fall,
you realize maybe life's not worth it,
cause you don't want this at all.

Your wrists are crying bloody tears
like what the fuck have you done 
and people are standing here like hey whats wrong, hun? 

What's fucking wrong? What are they saying?
they know. can't they see what they've done 
how they've changed 
who they are

It's all their fault but the blade's in my grasp
so I slash at the lookers and wipe the blood off my mask
now you see what you've done and you know it ain't true 
Go to the mirror, drop the knife, open your eyes 
it's you.
