But It Sounds Like Bullying.


You tell me that you are preparing me for the future,

But it sounds alot like bullying. 

You tell me I could lose a few pounds, that its your concern for my health,

But it sounds alot like bullying. 

You tell me that my dreams will never see reality. 

But it sounds alot like bullying. 

You tell me that life isn't fair,

But it sounds alot like bullying. 

You tell me how much prettier I would look with a little makeup,

But it sounds alot like bullying. 

You tell me that I'm not your type,

But it sounds alot like bullying. 

You tell me you are saving me from the pain in the future,

But it sounds alot like bullying. 

You say its not me, that its you,

But it sounds alot like bullying. 

You tell me you were just kidding,

But it sounds alot like bullying. 

You tell me to grow a sense of humor,

But it sounds alot like bullying. 

You told me, that you were just coaching,

But it sounds alot like bullying. 

You told me to get over it,

But I couldn't.

I tell you that I'm tired,

But its a lot more like depression.

I tell you that I'm busy,

But it feels more like anxiety.

I tell you that I tripped,

But its a distraction more like cutting.

I tell you that I'm not hungry,

But its the look in the mirror that makes me not eat.

I tell you you'll see me tomorrow,

But you won't.
