You see it everyday

You see it everyday 

Yet you do nothing about it

You say you want us to trust you

Yet I highly doubt it

 

Then you make us sit through the seminar

God I hate those things

Does anyone ever learn anything

I didn't think so

 

"Kids we write about Timmy ,who killed himself, today"

What about last week?

When you saw someone bully Timmy

When you just looked the other way

 

How could you have possibly known?

That we have so much pressure

It's not like you actually listen to us

That'd just be helter skelter

 

What's my problem? Why am I so angry?

Well I think you know Teach

Last time I told what was wrong

Last time I told you who touched me 

But did you do anything Teach

Can you even hear us anymore?

Wait, That's right you don't care

 

Next time you tell us to trust you

Next time you try to tell us that you care

Next time I'll know what to do

Next time it'll be because of what you don't hear
