Some say I'm blessed,
But they don't realize
I am cursed
Behind a web of lies
So I break a rule
Or two
Some call me a fool
Its what I do
My life has no spark
It is way too dull
I'm always in park
I never feel full
I'm digging myself into a pit
My friends wonder why
Well I don't give a shit
I might as well die
Who cares about me?
Obviously I'm just a burden
That shouldn't be free
Practically all I can use is this pen
So why am I still here?
Shouldn't I be dead?
After all, I live in fear
Except in bed
I'm only here
Because people need me
If that wasn't true, its clear
There wouldn't still be a me
Only because of friends
Am I still alive
Even then it depends
Sometimes I think I'll just take the dive
After all, who wants me?
Ive got more problems than a 30 year old mower
I'm a porn addict who can't break free
I jerk off, can I sink any lower?
They urge me to change
They say I can
But all that I see downrange
Is a false shadow of a man
I think I'm so cool
Cause I won't obey
A single fucking rule
And so I have to say
They are so pointless
And yet they enforce them
I'm such a mess
Everythings come apart at the hem
But I pretend I don't care
After all, I'm a teen
I'm not supposed to share
I'm supposed to be mean
I wonder why they keep me
Why don't they dump me on a corner
They keep me healthy
But never give me a quarter
I wish there wasn't a law
That doesn't let me work
Instead my every flaw
Gets revealed by my siblings before i can put in the cork
To shut their big, fat mouths
I think I'd rather be related
To a bunch of cows!
At least then I wouldn't get grated
Like cheese in a shredder
Every single thing I do
Only makes my moms face redder
Oh yeah, and dads face, too
Why don't I run away?
Maybe then I could get a job
With actual pay
But then officer Rob
Would find me
And take me back
Away from my money
That I earned while breaking my back
It wouldn't really be that bad
If my family actually went somewhere
Then I wouldn't get so mad
I wouldn't have a reason to care
But we don't
Its gotten to the point
They just won't
Even take us to a burger joint
"It's to expensive!"
They whine
So I never get a chance to live
Cause I always hear that line
Some say its just a bias
That I'll understand when I'm older
Well, kiss my ass
I'm only growing colder

There's a fine line between annoying me and making me furious and you're flirting with it. What the hell are you thinking? Cut it out, Mike, you're being an idiot. And yeah sorry for swearing but I do have to wonder what the HELL you're thinking when you write that stuff. I don't care about your freaking promise if you're gonna write stuff like this just break it go ahead I obviously don't care and I obviously mean nothing to you so why stop cuz of me?
