His Story

There is a boy in town
that no one else seems to know.
He's different than everyone else
but I understand him.
This is his story...

See, he grew up on the hard side of town,
wanted to light a match, and burn it all down.
He didn't know just how to live
but he knew exactly how he wanted
to die...
His family didn't care, neither did he.
He had a dream once, like everyone else.
But then someone came and stepped on it
crushing it into the ground.
The only word on his mind was revenge
and he knew he would deliver it someday.
Until then, all he'd do was tell me his story,
and didn't realize that I know the same fate...

This was his story, now you know.
You heard it from me,
because he died alone...
