Children like us have no chance

We were eaten by the demons in ourselves

We were pushed and pushed into this state

Until we retreat into our own private hell

We cry for the hope that someone will hear

We stay quiet hoping someone will listen

We hurt ourselves; we want attention

But we push away for our fears

It starts with a kid

It ends with a grave and the guilt in your eyes

You know it’s your fault for this ending in us

We children will never have a chance.
