The Pyle Inside

Two s3lf h@rms and two $u!c!d3s

That’s just since December 1st..

You thought your

Teenage years were bad?

I promise, ours are worse.

Two s3lf h@rms and two $u!c!d3s

Oh, What a tradition the free have made!

Our kids know how to lie about

How they get through a day;

Two s3lf h@rms and two $u!c!d3s,

Well at first glance she was ‘fine’

But she was bl33d!ng on her test,

So I looked another time;

Two s3lf h@rms and two $u!c!d3s,

We all knew she was… a mess.

But you didn’t try,

You just told her to smile?

Now she can’t wear a knee-length dress;

Two s3lf h@rms and two $u!c!d3s,

Now just look how far we’ve come!
He didn’t d!e between 12 and 1

Because he couldn’t find a gu#;

Two s3lf h@rms and two $u!c!d3s,

She would joke and say ‘f#ck life’

I didn’t know how far she’d go

Until she pulled that kn!f3.

That’s

Two s3lf h@rms and two $u!c!d3s,

They needed more

than me those nights;

And each time you say

“It’s just angst”

She ?ut$

another time;

Two s3lf h@rms and two $u!c!d3s;

Their stories, are woven in mine;

A classmate, a friend,

A ghost, and a stranger;

Your $t!gm@ is blaring in our

quiet.
