I use to cry myself to sleep when they called me names
Those scars on my arm kept me sane
I never wanted to be special, original or even cared about
I just wanted to get by, To be able to smile without all that fake shit
Never happened
I got called so many things that could make a sadist cry
Even wrapped in my boyfriend at the times arms I got picked off
Like a worthless scab I never expected life to get better
Then I met him
It was a simple myspace message, I was trying to make a friend
He was so simple and cute
Innocence that was it
I caught myself laughing a true laugh at his side then he said it
The word the changed my life
Graffti
Before that day I'd see it but never cared
and stickers I'd look and smile but never thought hey that cheer me up
Maybe he expected me to laugh at him but no I'd never do that
I knew what it was like to be judged
Then he did the most simple, kind gesture
He held out a blank sticker and marker and said
'Go ahead I won't judge you'
As soon as my hand gripped that paint marker I felt at ease
I felt it all pouring out
17 Years meant nothing compared to that one moment
That was the day I felt alive,
That's the day my Vampy Destroy walked into my life and gave me a purpose |
