Anything At All


You don't know who I am

You don't know my name

You don't know my thoughts

That's not part of the game

But you're all the same

You stare 

You talk

You laugh 

You taunt

You act like you know

But you'll never know

You don't know what these eyes have seen

But you think they're an ugly green

You don't know why I cry

But you laugh instead of asking why

You talk about me

Instead of talking to me

You make assumptions 

You throw insults

There's only one thing you want from me

The power

The satisfaction

Of feeling like somebody

Better

Than me
