Blackboard Façade

You stand there at your board safely placed behind this wonderful façade

You smile hoping to "touch" one of us and I laugh because I feel sorry for you

What can your pointless babysitting job teach me?

Do you even understand what is going on in my life?

Do you hear the screams that continue to haunt my night sleep?

No? I did no think so

You see in your fantasy world where one plus one clearly equals two the numbers do not add up for me

1 + 1 does not equal 2 the equation doesn't even make sense in MY world 

Therefore I feel sorry for you

You will forever be lied to day after day while I walk out of here and face the truth

I feel sorry for you
