About fathers...
Why do fathers fear their children?
Why do fathers up and leave so soon?
Why do fathers crush our hopes?
without even trying?
Why don't they ever just give us a chance?

Why do mothers not understand anymore?
Why do mothers still love us,
as we become lost causes?
Why do they waste their time and effort on us?

About boys...
Why are boys so deceiving?
Why are boys so heartless?
Why do they throw people away?
How are they so easily able to use people?
Why do they always let us down,
when we need them most?

About girls...
Why do we fall in love so quickly?
Why do we hate ourselves?
Why are they always walking right over me?
Why are they always taking down others?
Why are they so helpless?

About love...
Why do we put ourselves
through the pain of it?
Why is it so easy to love someone,
but so hard to stop?
Why are most loves a lie?
Why does love tear apart friendships?

About life...
Why does life have so many ups and downs?
Why does life whittle us down to nothing?
Why does life drag on for so long?
Why is life becoming an inconvenience?
Why does life suck so much?

About death...
Why do I want to die?
Why does it seem so blissful?
Why do I see it as an escape?
Why does it tempt me?
What's stopping me from it?

About myself...
Why do I hate myself?
Why does everyone else hate me too?
Why do I dread my own existence?
Why do I cover myself in these ugly scars?
Why do I even exist?..
