Do You Know...

Do you know...
Do you know how many nights they stayed up crying?
or how many days they thought they were dying?
Do you know how many times that they felt weak?
You just pushed them away when it was help they seeked..
So you come to them now expecting them to help you...
It caused a lot of pain and they wish you knew.

Unlike you right now they see the truth,
we need to have a better message for the youth.
This world should not be about fitting in,
by following that path no one can win.
There should be one message that we truly shout,
this world is about standing out.

But for a long time you never will see it,
you'd rather push people into an inescapable pit.
Just think about all the people you have hurt,
because of you there's a life they want to desert.
They should be living outside of their shell,
but thanks to you they feel like they're in hell.

So please for the youth,
try and stand for a better truth.
When we can hate, choose to love,
then with the hate we can rise above.
This world can be better if we start a new,
that new can start with you...
