Time stands still

He kept his head down, ignoring the stares

He closed his eyes, not that anyone cared

They constantly tormented him, making his life hell

They called him a psycho, till he finally heard the bell

He was on the stage, smiling with victory

But then paint poured, his smile was slipping

Laughter all around him, they called him a freak

He stares numbly ahead, but nobody sees

He won them a prize; he wanted to prove them wrong

But maybe he was a freak; he couldn't bear to go on

He stood by the closet, he pulled down the case

He took out the gun; tears were streaming down his face

He stood in the bathroom, in front of the mirror

He washed off his face, his fate was much clearer

Was it a mistake? Could he forgive and forget?

Should he let it go? Let them treat him like a pet?

He suddenly hears voices, he hides in the stall

They say his 'friend' did it, he leans on the wall

He returns to his locker, he picks up his sack

He walks up to Jim, there was no turning back

He pulls out the gun, his life was almost done

"You made me do this", he whispered and pulls out the gun

He pulled back the trigger, and closes his eyes

He hears a bang, screams, they run for their lives

He opens his eyes, glances gown the hall

The man was on his knees, he had yet to fall

This was the man that made fun of him, back then

But now for his actions, he would never walk again

"I came back here; to show them I'd changed."

But now he was dying, his life began to fade

He walked down the hall, more people froze in fright

He cocked back the trigger; there was fear from the sight

He pointed it at her, the one person he could trust

But she ruined the moment; she turned his heart to dust

He began to pull the trigger, but some one stepped up

He tried to stop him, but time was almost up

He closed his eyes and felt blinding pain at his side

Two boys fell to the floor, while the others all cried

The light began to flicker, his vision began to fade

But no one could help him, his dues were finally paid

He closed his eyes, a single tear slid down his cheek

When time stands still, he will finally come to peace
