[Db] There they go again, [Dbm] harassing this kid so easily.
His name is Andy, he grew up right down the street [B] from me.
I barely know him, though I [Abm] just see him in school while [B] passing me.
Usually followed by [Abm] two kids giggling in the back [A] of him.
I don't know why [Abm] they feel a need to interfere, [A] and I'll be honest, the kid [Ab] is obviously a little weird.
He's got a stutter plus always talks to himself, but it is clear to me that shouldn't mess with him.
He probably wish they disappeared [Dbm] like, yeah, he's different.
So he ain't causing harm to anyone.
Yeah, he might annoy him, not on purpose, though.
He's never [B] done something intentionally offensive like these other kids, like yelling, stop.
being [Abm] a retard.
When they see him [A] mumbling, they call him a faggot.
When he's saying something awkward, yeah, he lives with it.
But [Ab] he shouldn't have to any longer.
He's just a kid like any of us.
And matter of fact, next time I see it, I'm going to say something and have his back.

[Dbm] Next day ain't any better.
They're refusing him.
Every day gets worse because people accept it as they become used [B] to it and he don't stand up.
[Abm] But what can you do with that hate [B] against you?.
You call him out, you [Abm] call him spaz with some anger [A] issues.
They hear, [Abm] but they don't listen.
[A] Senseless.
They're hearing that bullies are everywhere, [Ab] thinking that here must be the exception.
But it's so alive and it's so true.
They got open eyes, but they don't view.
They got growing minds, but they don't use.
And it's overriding our whole view.
[Dbm] But to be honest, most of these bullies don't mean any harm.
They're just kids like any of us.
They like to be in charge.
[B] They like attention.
They just lack guidance in getting it.
So they put others down.
None of us are always innocent, [A] but that don't make it right.
[Abm] Because again, I'm watching Andy [A] get tortured by two of his [Ab] peers with no reason in sight.
And I know he knows I'm watching.
He sees me paying attention and it's getting worse and worse.
I hope he knows that I respect [Ebm] him.

The [Dbm] next day, Andy didn't show up to school and I was nervous.
He always came to this class.
I wonder what was the purpose.
[B] The same class had the [Abm] two kids who'd been messing with [B] him.
But without target, [Abm] both of them just blended right [A] in.
20 minutes later, the class is pretty quiet.
As Andy walks through the door, he was shaking and crying.
[Ab] As all heads slowly in sync turn, he pauses.
He pulls a pistol out of his front pocket.
[Dbm] The [Gb] girls scream.
The boy sat [Dbm] there [Abm] terrified.
[Dbm] Nobody expected this, but everyone knew the [Abm] reason why.
And before anyone could say something fully,.
within seconds, two bullets flew into his bullies.
[Eb] All screams as the bodies collapse.
[Abm] I felt I should say something [A] because I was the only one who had his [B] back.
I [Ab] said, it's over, Andy.
They're dead.
You had your wish.
He turned to me and said, you, you were the third on my list.
