It hurt when kicked me out , It hurt still to this day .

It hurt when you yelled , The hurt never went away .

Hurt when I said I was gay , Then you said I couldnt stay .

The tattoos never covered the pain .

My hair die washed out in the rain .

Over and over I remember that night .

Nothing could erase it , nothing could change it .

Each day I relive it , it hurts more .

Why does it hurt to be me ?

Why is the mirror such a bad place ?

Why can’t I face myself ?

Cause of you .
