They look at me and wait patiently,
They expect some life changing answer.
They eat out of my hand like birds,
They stick to me like some kind of cancer.
They look up to me like I am their hero,
They think I am indestructible and strong.
They would jump of a bridge if I told them to,
The way they think about me is so wrong.
I am the person they wish they were,
Simply because I seem to be so carefree.
They eat every word that leaves my mouth,
And don't even know to what they agree.
I am a survivor, for that I have to be perfect,
At least that's how they think about this all.
They think I know everything about life,
Never again can I be weak, cry or fall.
I have proven to be a strong person once,
And now they expect me to stay strong forever.
Now they think I can take on anything,
That I can take on anyone, whenever, wherever.
It seems like they think nothing can hurt me,
Like I have no reason to cry or feel bad.
I never knew people could be so close mined,
The way they worship me makes me so sad.
They expect me to lick and heal their wounds,
Like what I say would make sense.
Like some fucking hero, they follow me,
And they even stand up for my defense.
What I say won't make their lives easier,
But still they hang on every word I say.
I am just a kid, I am just like them,
I wish their expectations would go away.
When you cut me, I will bleed,
When you hurt me, I will cry.
I get angry at them sometimes,
And they wonder why.
I am not for your selfish satisfaction!
