Work Text:
Spines snap in the chairman’s room
With their eyes wide with fear
The office is filled with gloom
And sharp eyes glance over here
The chairman is a backstabber
Who likes to hide in his diluted lies
Don’t listen to his twisted jabber
When he kills children off like flies
Why am I sad, why am I crying?
But that’s only inside my head
When you feel like you’re dying
Let it go to your thinking instead
There’s no reasoning in abuse
When you taint your words with honey
When blood is instead in use
Don’t you think that’s kind of funny…
Billow and shake with all this blood
But never never cry
Because once it’s gone, go be a flood
And let this all die
For this father is a horrid creature
Who leeches off the tears of pain
What a sorry excuse of a teacher
How have I stayed this sane?
Gaze in this old man’s anguish
Feel pitiful for this sorry sight,
After all it’s all his fault for this languish
To be blown down by a weak child’s might
Three syllables was the cause of his death
Take the basketball and shoot a hoop
And you’ll see yourself by your final breath
This message is demonstrated on loop
Your mould is the same from and to his face
But he has arms with blood, caked dry around the hands
You can almost mistake the blood for strings of lace
Chairman, looks like you’ve sunken deep into the wonderlands
The places of delusions, with eyes so wide.
This School, our house, our hearts and lives
Are all so utterly dead inside
Now shift and go take your pick of knives
As his student was the one who did
To tumble off the bridge’s edge
He drowned and stewed in candid
Tumbling off the low, low ledge
Happy whimsical facades
Now are all long gone
To snort and blow like a hog’s
Is to admit to defeat so forlorn
This father stares at me above
His daunting cement-like teeth
Try to fly away like a dove
Do not trap me underneath
As you speak those filthy words
To tear flesh just like paper
Slice and dice into thirds
And turn this into vapor
To whisper those words of falsity
For riling up this sadistic rat game
It is only my job to take cautiously
As this slander is truly your name
I'll rip up this whole world
With shaking but strong minded will
Hopping out of this thirled
To claw at the seams with a bill
As this payment is my agony
Almost contagious as a cough
Then the students see me
They rip their personalities off
When my back is turned
they go and call me names
For my feelings are churned
I'll waltz upon these flames
I turn my back, dial a number
I'll go lead this, so when it's done
I'll enjoy myself upon this slumber
They still laugh when I run.
Giggling with bright cheers
I'll take my leave and break it away
And take all of these fears
Take all this pain, and keep it all at bay
For that’s how someone is truly strong in his eyes.
