Burn The Page

Pushed to the ground and shoved through the cracks
The boy's been left out on the back steps
Eating the greed that his parents left
Disconfigured the pain
Suffered through those timeless lies
Ripped and torn the blood sore eyes
Comfort gave by no one
The cat's left out in the rain

Take that book and burn the page
Take me far from this horrid age

The road to manhood blocked off
An alternate route must take
The shell of once a soft sweet child
Twisted, torn, bitter mistake
A harder road must be led
This hardened blood must be bled
These suffered words must be said
The twisted shell must be shed

Take that book and burn the page
Take me far from this horrid age
