Why even bother

Why even try

When this world is so mean

When teenagers struggle

To stay a few days clean

Where young children

Cause themselves harm

By sitting at home

And cutting their arm

Where everyone is judged

On all the wrong things

Some people believe 

That they have grown wings

They stretch out their arms

And look to the sky

Jump off the cliff

But they never fly...
