Keeping Out of Direct Sunlight

We are the ones with the radiating eyes. We are the Ones who have a fire inside. We are the ones only we can recognize. We've been rejected (we've been rejected)- Suffered the ignorance, suffered the selfishness, been pushed so far down now comes our time to surface. Turn from the light, that made them all go blind. We've been protected (we've been protected) ALL ARISE TO WHAT WE BRING,OUTSTRETCHED HANDS, UNFOLDED WINGS. We've hurt ourselves, and I feel the sting of broken hearts and burning wings...

I walked into my room tonight after Monica dropped me off and went to my bed to drop my bag onto it. While walking I caught a glance at my AFI poster and when I dropped my bag, I turned to them. They looked different, their gazes seemed different as if they were telling me, "It's okay, tell us all your problems." I wakled over to them and kissed my index finger and touched it to Adam's lips, then repeated it for Hunter then Jade and lastly Davey. I sighed and said, "What is wrong with me? Why can't I be normal?" I rub my face and start changing into my pjs. "I can't hide it anymore. I can't act like nothing is wrong anymore. I just can't." I don't know what's wrong with me anymore. After a night of hearing a fight over how I am the reason for all the problems and not sleeping, I didn't feel well. Actually I felt nothing, completely blank. It wasn't until 6th period did I break down and cry. That is when the pain came. Well I woke up, blank and not wanting to go see people but I got up even more because my will to not be home was stronger. So I go the bus stop to get the normal stares and when the bus came, I got on and sat next to Josh though I was strongly thinking of sitting somewhere else. I sat down and he turned to me and asked, "What was wrong last night?" I had been in a horrible mood even before the fighting and I had told him that he didn't want to me and then signed offline. I softly said, "Nothing." and we didn't say a thing the rest of the bus ride. When I got off the bus, I simply started walking away instead of waiting for Josh and Bryan though Josh was right behind me and I told him, "You can wait for Bryan. I have something I need to do."He starts to follow saying, "I would rather go with you."
I say blankly, "You can't follow me to the girl's bathroom."
He says some jokingly comments and somehow he is no longer walking with me. I walk to my locker to have Sophia show up. She says something about bands or something then asks what is wrong which I simply with "Nothing." I leave and walk slowly up a floor. Then I cross over to go to the bathroom. I open the door and quickly close it when I see a million girls in it. I go up one more floor and find that bathroom, open and only one girl in it. I act like I'm checking my make-up and soon she leaves. I then just stare into mirror. I stared deep into my eyes and begged myself to see something. Just anything. Any sign of emotion. I became in a trance and was quickly snapped out of it when the door opened. They gave me a funny look and I left the bathroom. I didn't know where to go. I didn't want to go to my friends. I didn't want to get the "what's wrong?" I know I caused the pity and I hated it. So I decided to walk to the tower stairs and see if I could find a lone spot. As I crossed over the second floor, it was full of people and when I got to the third floor, it was full of people including my cousin. I tried to walk past without her seeing but it didn't happen. I waved but she wanted a hug and of course asked, "What's wrong?" I said nothing and left. I turned the corner and slowed down wondering how much longer I had to wait till the bell. I checked my phone to see I still had fifteen minutes. I acted like I was going through my backpack and then messed with my mp4 and then my phone. Eventually, Melissa and Monica round the corner. I told them I had just went to the bathroom. I didn't really tell anyone what was wrong until in Math in sixth period. Ben kinda forced it from me. Yeah so that was that.
