Why do people have to bully
Why do people be mean
Why do people have to judge me
For something I can't see?

Accept that I am not perfect
Accept that I am just me
Accept the fact that I can't be something you want me to be
Why can't I accept that I can just be me

Because at the end of the day I know that that someone truly cares
But which one is that someone that is always there?
Who doesn't judge me for what I can't be
Won't judge my own stupidity
He's not there and I want him
Just that one who will tell me I'm okay

They don't have to call me pretty
They don't have to call me smart
They don't have to call me anything but just accept just accept my lonely heart
For when I lay alone tonight I think of all my faults

I don't want to feel useless
I don't want to feel dumb
I don't want to feel the anger, the poison of traitorous lungs
What it be so hard if the thoughts could just simply stop?

I don't want to be here sometimes
I don't want to hear sometimes
I just want to love someone who won't call me dumb
Because it's all so incredibly loud

I am who I am, I try my best to fix my faults.
Yet people keep judging and seeing what I'm not.
Yet I fear the loss of those who judge and quiver at that thought

Abandonment is scary and people are unkind
The irony is that I think I abandon what is mine.
I love a lot
I love them all
But stop seeing what I am not
