Sanders Sides- Virgil

A/N

Song I wrote yeah enjoy

She went to school behind long sleeves
People Billie her so they could be pleased
Arrogance, ignorance, the devices we use
To repent and forget about the abused
One night, she decided that she's had enough
Tired of wearing a mask and pretending to be tough
And so she on owed up at the sky with a smile
Said to herself, "I haven't been happy in awhile"
The next morning, her mother finds her hanging from a rope
She cries and sobs, "My daughter must've lost hope"
And so she cries herself to sleep all because she ignored her little girl's weeps

We put up posters after the fact
But by now, it's ancient artifacts
We should've done this while the broken were still intact
Do you feel me, do you feel me?
Do you feel this, do you feel this?
If only we saved them (if only, if only)
If only we saved them (if only, if only)

He looked out the window with tears in his eyes
He keeps on thinking, "I should commit suicide
Because being raped everyday isn't worth living for
Tired of being my mother's money growing whore"
He couldn't remember the last time he smiled
All because of those abusive disgusting pedophiles
And so he goes to his bedroom and grabs his blade
Takes off his shirt and cuts himself in the shade
His mother finds him bleeding and dead the next day
She looks up at the ceiling and cries, "This is the price I have to pay!"
Maybe if she wasn't a bitch and didn't treat her son like shit, it wouldn't have been this way

We put up posters after the fact
But by now, it's ancient artifacts
We should've done this while the broken were still intact
Do you feel me, do you feel me?
Do you feel this, do you feel this?
If only we saved them (if only, if only)
If only we saved them (if only, if only)

We always say, "if only, oh, if only"
"Yeah, if only we could've saved the lonely"
If only we didn't suck up ignorance like cocaine
If only we didn't use arrogance to numb our pain
No wonder why, no wonder why, no wonder why
No wonder why this nation is so blind
No wonder why teens have sad minds
Stop ignoring the broken, stop letting us fall apart
Stop keeping us unspoken, stop breaking our hearts
I hate how you let ignorance insist and not resist
No wonder why children keep on cutting their wrists
I'm tired of watching the news and seeing kids taking away their life with a knife
If only, if only, oh yes, if only we could ignore ignorance and stop this strife

We put up posters after the fact
But by now, it's ancient artifacts
We should've done this while the broken were still intact
Do you feel me, do you feel me?
Do you feel this, do you feel this?
If only we saved them (if only, if only)
If only we saved them (if only, if only)

We put up posters after the fact
But by now, it's ancient artifacts
We should've done this while the broken were still intact
Do you feel me, do you feel me?
Do you feel this, do you feel this?
If only we saved them (if only, if only)
If only we saved them (if only, if only)

The government always say, "if only we could save the lonely"
But in the end, all of those words are phony
I'll be your life jacket so you don't drown
The semicolons won't let you down

Thanks for reading
