Hey sorry I've been really busy with high skool and stuff. So here's an update to my story Life without Zim. Also, if anyone has a song they would want me to use Review/pm me and I'll think about the song, just as long as you're able to give me an idea of what would be happening during the song. ENJOY! I'm just a kid by simple plan. Also, the songs are over a course of a few months. Scars is by papa roach. Rated T for minor cursing, drinking, and angst.

Dib walked in to skool on Monday With a smile on his face and happiness in his heart. HE joyfully walked to his seat by the window waving at everyone as he passed. "I think he's finally cracked" whispered Zita to Jessica. Everyone around her just nodded and stared while Dib hummed to himself quietly. 'Everyone must have noticed my change of mood! Maybe someone will talk to me, but keep the paranormal to a minimum' he thought to himself. "Class take your seat an- Dib why are you so happy?" Ms. Bitters said. "Oh I'm just happy that I drove Zim off Earth and saved all of your lives. No need to thank me." Dib thought he was going to here praise and thank yous, but all he got was "You scared Zim off?" and "I knew Zim couldn't compete with your insanity!" 'There not supposed to say that. I saved their lives! Maybe if I give it a week.' Dib thought with his happy mood returning.

I woke up
It was seven
I waited till eleven
Just to figure out that no one would call
I think I've got a lot of friends
But I don't hear from them
I thought I would hear from someone by now. I mean what about Keef or Gretchen? Come on I waited Four hours to hear from them!
What's another night all alone
when you're spending every day on your own?
And here it goes

I'm just a kid
And life is a nightmare
I'm just a kid
I know that it's not fair
Nobody cares
'Cause I'm alone
And the world is
Having more fun than me tonight
I'm always alone at home. Gaz is here, but over the past 4 years she's changed and is barely ever home. Dad's Busy all year round. We haven't seen or heard from him in over a month. I'm too young to be out on my own and it doesn't matter because imp alone and have no were to go anyway.
And maybe when the night is dead
I'll crawl into my bed
Staring at these four walls again
I'll try to think about the last time
I had a good time
Everyone's got somewhere to go
And they're going to leave me here on my own
And here it goes
Every night it's eat dinner and go to bed just to stare at my walls for hours. Gaz moved in with a friend so I've got the house to myself. I try to remember the last time I was happy, that was when- no I can't think about him anymore. He left and that's the greatest thing to ever happen to me. Right?
I'm just a kid
And life is a nightmare
I'm just a kid
I know that it's not fair
Nobody cares
'Cause I'm alone
And the world is
Having more fun than me tonight

What the hell is wrong with me?
Don't fit in with anybody
how did this happen to me?
Wide awake
I'm bored and I can't fall asleep
And every night is the worst night ever
I'm not a nerd, I'm not a jock, I'm not preppy, Goth's too dark for me, I don't play an instrument, every time I sing its sounds like a dying animal…Where the hell do I fit in at? I'm falling behind in skool because I can't seem to stay awake. Every night my tossing and turning gets worse and worse, I mean I had 5 hours of sleep last night! High skool sucks.
I'm just a kid
I'm just a kid
I'm just a kid
I'm just a kid

I'm just a kid
And life is a nightmare
I'm just a kid
I know that it's not fair
Nobody cares
'Cause I'm alone
And the world is
Nobody wants to be alone in the world

I'm just a kid
And life is a nightmare
I'm just a kid
I know that it's not fair
Nobody cares
'Cause I'm alone
And the world is
Nobody wants to be alone in the world
Nobody cares
'Cause I'm alone
And the world is
Having more fun than me tonight
I'm all alone tonight
Nobody cares tonight
'Cause I'm just a kid tonight
I hate being a kid.

It's been three months since Z-he left. I've tried everything, but nothing can seem to make me happy. I don't wanna live anymore because the only times in my life when I was truly happy was when he was here. I, I just don't know what to do anymore. Nobody cares, nobody listens, and nobody wants m here so I might as well leave while I still have a sense of reality.

Xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx

Italics=Zim

Regular text=Dib

UPPERCASE=BOTH

I tear my heart open, I sew myself shut
My weakness is that I care too much
My scars remind me that the past is real
I tear my heart open just to feel
Damn that Dib, damn him. Ive been practically ripping me apart trying to save his ass. I know that neither of us has had the greatest past, but he just can't go around and doing things like this. It's wrong! ALL THESE FINE WHITE SCARS HE LEFT ON ME REMIND ME THAT THE PAST ISNT SOME CRAZY SCREWED UP DREAM.
Drunk and I'm feeling down
and I just wanna be alone
I'm pissed cause you came around
Why don't you just go home
Cause you channeled all your pain
and I can't help you fix yourself
You're making me insane
I finished off my fifth beer and my mood isn't getting any better. I thought I saw Zim out the window and I started screaming at him. How dare he just come waltzing down the street after leaving me like this. If he's going to leave then just don't come back. It was a close call, I was going to your house to talk to you and you saw me. Luckily you didn't think I was really there. Ive been trying for months now to fix you, but all of your pain you put into yelling at me. I'm sorry Dib, but I can't help put you back together lest I go insane.
All I can say is

[ACTUAL CHORUS]
I tear my heart open, I sew myself shut
My weakness is that I care too much
Our scars remind us that the past is real
I tear my heart open just to feel

I tried to help you once
Against my own advice
I saw you goin' down
But you never realized
That your drowning in the water
So I offered you my hand
Compassion's in my nature
Tonight is our last stand

I tried getting you out of a fight using my pak's invisibility shield, but then people just thought you were even weirder. You've basically been drowning in your own insanity and lies. THIS WILL ALL BE OVER BY NEXT WEEK.

Chorus

I'm drunk and I'm feeling down
and I just wanna be alone
You shouldn't ever come around
Why don't you just go home?
Cause your drowning in the water
and I tried to grab your hand
and I left my heart open
but you didn't understand
but you didn't understand
GO. FIX. YOURSELF.

I can't help you fix yourself
But at least I can say I tried
I'm sorry but I gotta move on with my own life
I can't help you fix yourself
But at least I can say I tried
I'm sorry but I gotta move on with my own life

Chorus x2

I've been trying to find Zim but I can't stand it I have to move on. At least I won't have to deal with him anymore, or anyone else for that matter. It will all be over by next week.
