Don't Ask Why

Imagine them look down on you
Nowhere to go
No place hide
Nothing to show

For all the good things you did
Labelled as malice
Branded a villain
With words so callus

And you can never feel emotions
Of hurt and pain
Never feel angry
Nor feel shame

Because if you react to being done wrong
You will be branded
Wicked and evil
Left to feel stranded

So when you see me smiling
With eyes of glee
Know I am crying
The smile is not me

In the end people betray me
Treat me like shit
Call self pity
When alone I sit

When really I feel anger
Burning with pain
When fingers are pointing
I may not complain

So one day I will wake up
To ne'er a sun
You will ask why
I am suddenly done

But your actions spoke words
Your words cut deep
And one day I'll wake
In an eternal sleep

So when you read this
It's no cry for support
But simply a statement
My final report

For in the end you will find me gone
Ne'er to return
Hanging lifeless
In hell I will burn

For brimstone will free me
And release my pain
Your words and actions
They drive me insane
