This is our tale and it must be told
when I was about ten years old
I was bullied by some older boys
they took my money and wrecked my toys
They'd beat me up and kicked me bad
and made me steal money from my Dad
which, by the way, I was scared to do
'cause he would cripple me if he knew
and I hated life and wished for death
to come and take my final breath
Now this is our tale and it must be told
when you were about twelve years old
you were also bullied by older kids
they'd pull your hair and mocked your zits
but never wondered why you were so sad
no-one knew the violation by your Dad
which, by the way, caused you failure to sleep
you were too afraid to be raiped by that creep
and you hated life and wished for death
to come and take your final breath
And when we met, we became best friends
we were like soulmates without romance
and if you had allowed me to
I surely would have kissed you
except you didn't, your heart was void
any sort of affection your Dad had destroyed
So we walked with shadows on our tracks
and carried a heavy burden on our backs
Sadly even our friendship could not prevent
you, still longing for the END
Which led you to make me take a vow
together we would end our lives somehow
and we were committed to jump the next week
when fate dealt us a vicious streak
Instead of joining you as I so swore
I tripped and fell down the stairs the night before
I broke my leg and hurt my spine
and was hospitalized for quite some time
Afterwards I searched for you all around
But as I feared, you were nowhere to be found
So did you jump alone that day ?
Or did your Dad take you away ?
The answer didn't matter to me then...
'cause I knew I'd never see you again
My life changed suddenly as I found some friends
and I got no longer beaten up by evil parents
But how was I supposed to embrace my fate
when I was denied the soul of my mate...
And people said you'd stay with me in spirit
But what the f*ck is life if you are not in it !
