My Fault
Why is it always my fault?
Why am I always the bad guy?
You’re the one who launches a verbal assault
I’m the one who tries so hard to make sure they don’t see me cry
Have you considered how much you’ve hurt me?
Has that thought ever even crossed your mind?
Have you never taken into account
the emotional torment you inflict, and how paramount
its effect has been on me?
I am emotionally abused and accused and refused
justice. it's useless, everyone's heartless.
such defiance
they're all lyin'
Seriously, are you buyin'
this? They're like lions
jaws apart, claws sharp,
apparently they have no fault at heart.
They’ll hunt you down,
tie you to a pole and set it ablaze,
stalking you among the shadows,
hiding among the tall grass
of their dark and twisted ways.
They assume things without a doubt
Gossiping about me as if I wouldn't find out, HA!
you think you're so stealthy
when i walk past, you give me the stink eye like I'm filthy
Why do they declare me guilty?
No thanks for asking, I'm not related to Lucifer
and btw, the last time I checked,
you are not a judge, jury, or executioner
