An expert in illness,
Attracted to death,

Sympathy they’re seeking.
Sympathy they get.

A tragedy will happen, they’ll make it last,
For the pity they’re seeking requires the past.

Their actions have reasons, it’s not their fault.
It comes from years ago by some sick adult,
The kids all teased me, my dad gave the strap,
The scout master touched me, my mum spoke like crap.

We’ve all had our problems some worse than others.
But don’t take it out on us, your sisters, your brothers.

I don’t ask you to forget or even forgive.
Just to move on, enjoy life and live.

    Hey – that’s really good, powerful feelings come through, very sad really. Good last line :-)

    only spotted one thing ‘They’re actions have reasons…’ think it should be ‘Their actions…’
