Sh** You Can't Say To Your Teacher (Can't You See)

Teacher, Teacher
Can't you see
What this life is doing to me?

Can't sleep at night
Due to memories and fear
Anxiety chewing away at me
A family that doesn't care

Teacher, Teacher
Can't you see
That school has become a safe haven to me?

Never wanting to go back to my personal perdition
Wanting an escape
But finding myself stuck in a miserable cycle

Teacher, Teacher
Can't you see
That my own mind is killing me?

Haunted by my past
No redemption for my sins
Sentenced to a prison within my mind

Teacher, Teacher
Can't you see
That you're the only one that can save me?
