Losing Control of Life
Moved to Nene house thought it was a nice place
At first it all seemed kind of great
Got along with people
Turns out they were snakes
Smoked bud, sniffed crack
Lost control of life
Shagged boys, got drunk
Totally changed my life
As I walked along the corridors the rumours went around
‘Fat ***** fat cow’
I starved myself wouldn’t let food stay down.
Couldn’t cope no more wouldn’t let food stay down
Ran away put staff through so much stress but my story doesn’t end yet you haven’t heard the rest
I was lost and had nobody put my mind to the test
Yh you haven’t heard the rest
Got messages saying I should die
By this point I had enough of my life
So I went into my bedroom locked the door
Got hold of all these tablets took loads and took some more
It was an overdose, didn’t tell anyone
No one noticed till the morning
Didn’t realise what I’d done
Saw that look in staffs eyes the look I can’t forget
Then mind fills with emotion then regret
They were scared shocked and didn’t want to do
So they phoned an ambulance didn’t wanna tell the truth
Things didn’t change; I would still smoke drugs to numb that pain
But this was my fight and I weren’t going to lose
And I’ve learnt to ignore those who will disapprove
Don’t judge a book by its cover
You don’t know what you’ll find
I’m Daisy Tyrrell and this story is mine
So RIP to the angels who took their own lives.
Keep on fighting cos every cloud has a silver lining gotta be strong be a soldier and forget what those bullies told youm
