The sad truth of being bullied

Emo / Screamo / Metalcore track in a minor key (Drop C/B), Mid-tempo with sudden stops, tempo shifts, and crushing half-time breakdowns, Raw, emotional male vocals: strained emo singing in verses, whispered spoken-word pre-chorus, anguished melodic screamed chorus, and full unhinged screams in breakdowns, Lyrical tone is dark, accusatory, and tragic—first-person narrative about online bullying, isolation, and psychological collapse, Emphasize how “just jokes” escalate into real harm, exposing the reality that bullying more often leads to suicide, not glory or revenge, Cautionary, confrontational, and uncomfortable, Detuned chugging guitars, dissonant bends, feedback, whining lead lines in interludes, Tight snare-driven verses, explosive choruses, multiple breakdowns, Abrupt instrumental stops for emotional impact, End with a quiet spoken outro that reframes the song as a warning about accountability, empathy, and the weight of words online, Mood: despair → rage → clarity → grim ref

[PRE-CHORUS  spoken soft and slow / snare lead:]
They don’t mean it.
Yeah?
Well, you don’t know that!

[CHORUS]
It’s just jokes till you’re all gone
Just noise till something goes wrong
You baptize me with blood and fire
Then act surprised when I fracture inside
Just jokes till you're all gone
Read the room I never saw
Just jokes till you're all fucking gone
You don’t feel the weight at all

[Hook]
Either you or me
That’s the lie my head keeps telling me!!!

[VERSE TWO]
Dogpile the outsider cause it's fun
Teaching others how not to cross you
Misunderstood like a foreign tongue
I’m getting mean
I’m getting numb
They meme the devil and tag my head
Say I'm unwelcome and wish I were dead
You call it humor
or call it flair
I call it bullying behind your dead stare
AHHHHH!!!!

[Break - Emotionally spoken building with intensity]
I start thinking crooked thoughts in my mind
Violence growing throughout my mind
Not smart enough to be in on it all
Hate dressed like the Columbine FALL!!!
SOOON!!!!

[INTERLUDE – raw emotionally slow delivery- whining guitar draws - drums slow and heavy emotional]
tap, tap the trigger like raining stones!
thousands of voices
soon to be bones!
laugh it off, as their bodies drop limp!
I was new, they underestimate my love for death!

[Repeat]
tap, tap the trigger like raining stones!
thousands of voices
soon to be bones!
laugh it off, as their bodies drop limp!
I was new, they underestimate my love for death!

[PRE-CHORUS  spoken soft and slow / snare lead:]
They don’t mean it.
Yeah?
Well, you don’t know that!

[Hook]
Either you or me
That’s the lie my head keeps telling me!!!

[BRIDGE – MAIN]
Who’s responsible for the tone?
For the blood now leaking your veins?
You acted like clowns, you built a cage
You farmed a mind that learned to rage
Crowd says toughen up or leave
Two bad choices up my sleeve
One mind hates you, one mind hates me
That’s the math of tragedy

[SCREAMED BREAKDOWN – HEAVY]
YOU DON’T HEAR US WHEN WE SAY STOP!
YOU DON’T CARE WHO TAKES THE DROP!
MISREAD WORDS MAKE DISTRUBING THOUGHTS!
CROWDS GROW MONSTERS, WHERE THERE TAUGHT!
JUST JOKES BUILT A NEW DEATH SITE!
PRESSURE ON A FIRST-TIME MIND!
LAUGH ALL YOU FUCKING LIKE!
It’s just jokes till you’re all DEAD!
Just noise till it all goes fucking WRONG!!

[FINAL CHORUS- slow build into it]
Just jokes till you’re gone
Not funny when the light clicks on
You learn the weight of what you’ve done
When one goes quiet, one grabs a gun 
I won’t wear the knife you threw
I’ll sing the truth in spite of you
Just jokes till you're all gone
Read the room I never saw
Just jokes till you're all fucking gone
You don’t feel the weight at all

[OUTRO TAG – spoken]
The sad part is this is not how it typically goes. 
The poor outsider finds it's easier to just take their own life. 
No going down in a blaze of glory. 
Just a sad reality from being bullied.

Think next time you send that online message.. Is this really worth it. 
Or are you just being a dick for no reason?
If it's the latter maybe look in the mirror as to why you're so fucking miserable that you need to make other people feel the same way.

It’s just jokes till you’re all DEAD!
Just noise till it all goes fucking WRONG!!

[VERSE ONE] New kid login, first day drowned Comment section circling ‘round Like sharks under the cusp of water I didn’t know how the game was done Being defensive the target on me Behind the screen they don’t really see Banter sounds like a deadly check Feels like a boot against my neck They said relax! it’s how we talk! Learn the ropes! learn to mock! But every laugh lands on my back Misread humor turns to threat! [PRE-CHORUS spoken soft and slow / snare lead:] They don’t mean it. Yeah? Well, you don’t know that!
