Why I Killed Your Friend
There's a reason you know, Why I killed you
Why I came to school today, with a gun in my pocket and bullets in my bag
My reason is why
Why everyday I walk up these stairs and you turned up your nose and snickered at my back
Why everyday you let me walk these hall's invisable, but never deaf to your cruel words
Why everyday I sit at this table alone but surrounded by kings and queens rejecting me even as your slave
Why everyday I try harder and harder
Why everyday my best is never enough good enough
Why everyday you stomp and trample and destroy my already crushed being
They were my reason, they were my why
Don't be his reason, don't be her why, I'm not the only one with a gun in my pocket
