He wakes up with an image of what perfect is
His only wish is his vision wasn't as blurred as this
He thinks there must be something somewhere cursing him

Always bringing him down and always hurting him

He takes his pain out on paper with a pencil or a pen

And rely on his family which he calls his friends
the only thing in the world he can really depend
That will be there for him right until the very end


Sometimes he likes to be on his own
Cause when he's alone is when he feels most at home

He thinks the silence will give him room to grow
You might think you know his story But you don't really know


As a young kid grown up in South Australia
The times he had were the best without any failure
His life long memories keep him up when he's down

He only wishes that he had time to figure out

Why he doesn't keep in touch with the ones he loves

They must think that he's probably just given up
But he will never stop trying to make them proud
That's why he creates music to make it loud


Now things for him didn't always go his way
He left Adelaide and moved to another state

The girls were hot the weather was great
Then he enrolled in high school and learnt about hate


Not a day went by where they wouldn't see him cry
He used to plead to the sky help me and ask why
He thought it was because he was the new guy

But days went own and he wished more to die

He wanted to be left alone they wouldn't give him that

Instead he got blindsided by a cricket bat
He didn't understand the situation he was in
He had a new life and stitches underneath his chin


Was this all really happening to him now
He pretty muched watched his life fall and hit the ground

And he couldn't trust anyone or give a $#&@
And that was when he started doing drugs


What started off as a thing for leisure
turned into something bigger to measure
But it always gave him a little bit of pleasure

cause it always helped him feel a little better



Now im not gonna lie he contemplated suicide
But he thought they would win if they heard he died
So he kept going back $$# kicked then walk home

And get the footage sent to his cell phone

A year had past and his self respect had plummeted

He wanted to be happy but couldn't stomach it
He was a ghost to emotion and feeling
And on December 13th he moved back to new Zealand


Be brave he as he walked into his new school
Be yourself and just act cool

He was surprised when he was greeted with open arms
Since that day 4 whole years has passed


Now his past is something that he doesn't really touch
Because since those days he has found so much love
Through the compassion of his best friends

All his wounds have been on the mend

But life has so many more doors to open up

And he's gonna walk through them only looking up
He's excited for what the future and what its gonna be
How do I know? Cause that kid is me
