“The World Out There”
It’s the middle of the night, and he should be asleep in his bed
Instead he’s opening his window and poking out his head
He stares up at the heavens, gazing at the stars
While listening to the sounds of distant passing cars.
The world out there seems strange, and so dark and scary
People die in planes, or eaten by monsters fat and hairy.
Kidnappers will steal you from school, and terrorists shoot you in the face
Evil ghosts will haunt your soul, working in tandem with aliens from space.
Bank robbers take you hostage, and shove your nose into your brain
Or mustachioed villains tie you to the tracks, and have you run over by a train.
The world doesn’t really feel real, as he ponders it from the safety of his room
But he knows that these things happen, it is statistically safe to assume.
The vastness of the night, even as the stars twinkle in the sky
Overwhelms him with the possibilities, of ways to live and die
His world sometimes feel small, surrounded by just his family and his friends
But as he looks out his bedroom window, he can see the world never ends.

“The Little Voice”
Mercy has that Little Voice, the one that lives inside your head
It sneaks out of your brain, and whispers the last thing you want said
All of your fears and doubts, truths that slash you to your core
It never runs out of ammo, since you always feed it more.
It knows you better than most, but it doesn’t know the real you
Even if it’s whispering factual venom, it doesn’t mean it’s true.
You’re never as good or bad as ya are at your best and worst
And That Little Voice is skilled at making you feel eternally cursed.
You give it the power it holds, when you believe it’s vile hissin’
The Voice will say what it says, but you don’t gotta listen.

“They’re All Just Gonna Laugh At You”
It doesn’t really matter what you say or do,
Since they’re all just gonna laugh at you.
You’re the living punchline to their neverending joke,
A festering wound that they incessantly poke.
Crying into his pillow, he asks himself why?
And would it be easier if he just let himself die?
It’s not what he wants but it has to be better than this
Constantly being laughed at is not something he’d miss.
Perhaps in a past life he committed some heinous crime
So he’s cursed to be miserable until the end of time
He’s definitely sorry for whatever he had did,
To earn this life sentence as a sad n’ miserable kid :-/
Waking up in the morning, he slowly gets ready for school
Steeling himself for the daily ritual of being made into a fool.
The now feels like forever, the endless jokes at his expense
He can only hope that someday it all makes some sort of sense.
