Whats the big deal?
Why is everyone so stressed?
There all just so tence
And always depressed.
Is it really that bad,
To live in this place?
Enough to bring tears?...
It seems a disgrace
To live life in this way,
People afraid of each word they say.
Whats the big deal?
Just get over it.
Forget that it happened.
Why deal with this shit!
Get happy
Get mad
Get over
Not sad
Don't waste your time,
put down that knife,
Just be glad,
That you still have your life.
Live it!

just because we're depressed doesnt mean we're "all just so tence"
"Just be glad,
That you still have your life." y be glad for something i wish i didn't have?
"Get over
Not sad" its WAY MORE easily said than done. i highly doubt that if anyone was rly sad, that they could just decide to get over it, and lock away that emotion right there
Overall u have a nice theme of being happy, instead of sad, but some of the things u said were offensive
what i found most offensive tho was this:
"Whats the big deal?
Just get over it.
Forget that it happened.
Why deal with this shit!"
whether u realize it or not, many things r a big deal, u cant just get over it and forget what happened, besides, if u forget what has happened, u'll just make the same mistake over again. history has a tendency of repeating itself
