Drowning Myself

I hear what they say,
I know what they think.
They dont like me.
I wake knowing this everyday.

They judge me by how I dress,
They spread roomers
About me at school,
Then they wonder why
I'm always so depressed.

So I just drown myself
In my tears.
It's the only way I know.
It's the only way I can.
I just hide from all my fears.

They play games
In wich they call me names,
And they yell at me because
I'm uncool.
Then family wonders
Why I hate school.

I lock my feelings up inside,
Until it comes the time.
Then I lay down on my bed,
And go over the day
In my head.

Then I just drown myself
In my tears.
It's the only way I know.
It's the only way I can.
I just hide from all my fears.

Today they played their games,
And today they called me names.
Today I heard what they said.
Today I knew what they thought.
But today was different
Because today is the day I fought.

I fought back for my friends
And I fought back for myself.
Today my fathers gun was
Missing from its shelf.

No longer will I run
No longer will I hide
No longer will I keep it all
Locked up deep inside.

I refuse to just drown myself
In my tears.
It's no longer the only way I know.
It's no longer the only way I can.
Today I will kill my fears.

Today my fears shall bid me adue
Today they will vanish
Today my fears will be gone
And so will I
Because today
My fears will kill me too.
And today I get my wish.
