Your beauty, your grace,
You’re a little nutcase…
Why did you let me live?
I’m just an amusement…
Abuse me
We’re all the same
A kingdom of cutters who have serious problems
But nobody knows so nobody cares…
We abuse drugs and alcohol
We lie
We’re a group of fucked up little kids that everyone wants to die
We feed off of pain
We’re leeches
A whole bunch of outspoken little bitches…
So why do you shower us with praise
You hypocrite, fucking liar
You abuse drugs as much as we do…
But you’re an adult
And we’re only teenagers
Misnamed emo…
We’re the users
Abusers
Of alcohol and cocaine
Send us all to the fucking mental institution…
We won’t give a shit about you
Or your plans for us
What you want us to do with our lives…
It’s a whole goddamn cycle
Not a rebirth or revival
We’ll all become adults someday…
We dread it so
We don’t want to let go
Of our relation and emancipation
Just the 21st century fuck ups…
So we etch names on our wrists
And write our suicide notes in blood
It’s peaceful
Pleasure takes over pain
And we die with the bloody stains…
So fuck it, kill us all…
Trap us in college talk and high school books
Make us study, call us honey
Lock us in confining rooms…
All we want is our freedom
And it’s paid for in blood
Razors and knives
The suicidal are the fighters
You just let them die
We’re teased and tormented
But that’s just a part of growing up
Until we end up in the ground instead of the hospital…
And yet they talk about us
Fucking little snakes
They have no respect for the dead
We’re just jokes still
A success in the bullying playbook…
And the parents don’t care
Because we just fucking stare
Into space, looking for a solution
Ending the deaths in our revolution...
It’s not a question
Of the depression
That plagues our generation…
It’s the desperation
The fear,
It doesn’t even end here…
When the suicidal are all dead
And the emo locked up
It just leaves the whores
The beautiful sluts…
No black unless it’s natural
The tempting silver mistress nowhere in sight
Not an ounce of abuse
For this clever ruse
Because we’ll be all dying
Not the least bit death defying…
We’ll never give up
You’ll never win
Even though killing ourselves is the greatest fucking sin
We still have the blades
And we know how to use them
We speak out for the abused
“Across the road” for the hospital, “Down the street” for the morgue…
We’d die for each other
In a midst of choking on pills and shooting bullets
Because that’s who we are…
