Feel it cutting into me the doubting painful knife
Feel it deepening the rift finally hit just right
Couldn't take the love I had so weak and burning low
But it grew into a weapon only hurting me, this I know
Is nonfiction
So good with numbers, science, math I like
But I'm terrible at English so I despise
This part of me that wants a simple right or wrong
And I feel that everything I choose will always be false.
And today this homework about me a blank sheet
Accomplished, content with this life I will now live
'Till I think "Why are we just sometimes, no, always
Saying how we're sad and saying how we're lonely"
Can you even read the blackboard written clear as can be
Can you even read his mind, see that kid's lost fantasy
Can you even find the one who died his red heart to black
Hey, who could it be
Hey, someone tell me
Can you even solve the question with your abacus yet
Can you even stop the rope from hanging him by his neck
Did we really choose it right saying we're ok this way
Hey, just tell me how
It's not like I care now
Counting days like numbers, they all pass their prime
And again hypnotically swimming through time
Behind the power and guards I put up
I hide
Knowing they had long died
From problems, my resolve just can't solve that homework
Accomplished, content with this life I will know live
'Till I think, and he speaks, the demon inside us
Saying "let me just leave" saying "someone kill me"re we just sometimes,
No, always
Saying how we're sad and saying how we're lonely"
Can you even read the blackboard written clear as can be
Can you even read his mind, see that kid's lost fantasy
Can you even find the one who died his red heart to black
Hey, who could it be
Hey, someone tell me
Can you even solve the question with your abacus yet
Can you even stop the rope from hanging him by his neck
Did we really choose it right saying we're ok this way
Hey, just tell me how
Hey, just tell me how
Can you even say the formula of area now
Can you even scream the dreams you swore would never go out
Who was the one who let my hopes just curl up and die
Hey, who could it be
No, it's gotta be
"Just open up your eyes, why don't you grow up and see"
But what the hell is growing up and tell me when will I be
Can a single person out there just explain it to me
Hey, just tell me how
It's not like I care now
