When I was Young

I got told a lot of things when I was young
I was told to kill myself and that stung
But they all blamed it on a slip of tongue
Some said I was dumb
Is it sad I was with them
Afraid of the monster I become
All of this hate that I couldn't run from
As I watched my mental health come undone
Got called a school shooter and I've never seen a gun

I'd never go out of my way to end a whole school
In what way would that be fun
When I think of all the stuff that I would like to do
Finding a way to buy an AK isn't one
I just live day by day
I don't seem to feel the pain
Cause apparently I'm insane

I got told a lot of things when I was young
I was told to kill myself and that stung

I got told a lot of things when I was young
I was told to kill myself and that stung
But they all blamed it on a slip of tongue
Some said I was dumb
Is it sad I was with them
Afraid of the monster I become
All of this hate that I couldn't run from
As I watched my mental health come undone
Got called a school shooter and I've never seen a gun

Call it anger
Call it rage
Screaming in the open space
Am I nothing but a waste
Destined to be replaced
I got told I was nothing
They all said that they were bluffing

I got told a lot of things when I was young
I was told to kill myself and that stung
But they all blamed it on a slip of tongue
Some said I was dumb
Is it sad I was with them
Afraid of the monster I become
All of this hate that I couldn't run from
As I watched my mental health come undone
Got called a school shooter and I've never seen a gun

I got told a lot of things when I was young
I was told to kill myself and that stung
But they all blamed it on a slip of tongue
Some said I was dumb
Is it sad I was with them
Afraid of the monster I become
All of this hate that I couldn't run from
As I watched my mental health come undone
Got called a school shooter and I've never seen a gun
