- he's kicking and screaming
i'll only go to school if you give me a reason!
the kids are really mean and i already know all the things they're teaching
...
showing up late but he makes it to class
just to stare out the window and the clock in the back
he daydreamed away to a sky so grey
everything's simple, it's driving him mental
wishing every day that something would change
instead his dad makes him play ball by the bay
and every time he cries, father rolls his eyes saying
son it's all your fault, how come you never try?
...
he says to himself, what are you doing, you don't deserve this
don't you know nobody will ever understand the person that you are?
learn to hold your own hand
get yourself together and lose the weight
you'll never be what you want, no, not with that face
...
he does all that he should, why is he misunderstood?
this is a story about a broken boy
with his headphones in just to block out the noise
of everyone around him telling him the way to go
so he walks the world alone, wondering if it gets better
or if he's always gonna feel empty forever
...
sometimes he wonders if he grew up too fast
and missed out on the little things
