lyrics

Verse 1:
He felt down again
He’d lost all of his friends
He was left in the end
No one ever saw it happening

Chorus:
And as he jumped
He said goodbye
No one cared
And no one cried
A little gay boy
Tormented inside
He was alone
He was pushed aside
(Left to die)
And as he jumped
He said goodbye
No one cared
And no one cried
A little gay boy
Tormented inside
He was alone
He was pushed aside
Left to die
(It wasn’t right)

Verse 2:
Bullied pushed to the edge
Carefree he sure wasn’t
Brain fried
From all the stress
He didn’t know
Who were his friends

Chorus:
And as he jumped
He said goodbye
No one cared
And no one cried
A little gay boy
(Left to die)
Tormented inside
He was alone
He was pushed aside
(Left to die)
And as he jumped
He said goodbye
No one cared
And no one cried
A little gay boy
Tormented inside
He was alone
He was pushed aside
(Left to die)

Bridge:
Yo yo I’d give ‘em hope
I’d make ‘em smile
I’d keep ‘em company
Just for a little awhile
Hey yo I’d mend his wounds and I’d free his soul
Yo I would pull him back and show ‘em how life goes
And yo I’d help ‘em out and I’d defend him so
He wouldn’t have to shout or ever be alone
Yo man ‘cause how the fuck can people be so mean
Yo would save ‘em from all of the dumb bullies

Chorus:
And as he jumped
He said goodbye
No one cared
And no one cried
A little gay boy
Tormented inside
He was alone
He was pushed aside
(Left to die)
And as he jumped
He said goodbye
No one cared
And no one cried
(Left to die)
A little gay boy
Tormented inside
He was alone
He was pushed aside
(Left to die)

Bradley Voorhees East Syracuse, New York

Who doesn't enjoy an interesting indie artist? Am I good, am I bad? Who knows. Guess we'll all have to wait and see. Yes, "we" 'cause not even I know myself anymore. I think that really comes out in the tunes though. Who knows, perhaps it may be you who can help solve a mystery? Yeah, I like a lot of retro television :D But I'll be there for you, if you're there for me too! Ha ... more
