What is wrong with us?

by Gracie Danielle   Jul 21, 2005


What is wrong with you people?
I ask to myself...
Do you just want attention?
Or do you really need help.
It seems like the words
that come from your mouth...
come from everyone else's version
of life heading south.
God knows that Ive been there...
I'm embarrassed to admit
Because Attention (any way
you put it) is what you get.
Attention is what your after...
I hate when people say
Only because i know its the truth
Ill admit the first time today.
I think a very small amount
of these kids who are depressed
really need someone,
the others are just obsessed
obsessed with being the
center of universe.
and I'm not just Criticizing,
i dealt with me first.
And every time i see it....
this attention grabbing
I shake my head in embarrassment
for you, but maybe its your thing.
You kids today need to grow up
no one Wants to be with you
Because of your obsession
and your ..poor me.. attitude.
I'm saying all of this,
in the nicest possible way.
But, man, if i could get my hands on you....
I don't think I'm allowed to say.
Seriously kids, suck it up...
Walk it off, move on, stop...
Enough getting back at your parents...
Get off the band wagon... its your stop....
And your thinking... who am i
to tell you all these things...
I'm one of you... attention grabbers
just another fellow teen.
Come one, come all... join me
make your way off the attention bus...
so we don't have to hear people ask...
What is wrong with us?.
