Some People
Some people go through life hoping for more
Some people just think of life as a bore
Some people kid and joke
Some people complain about being broke
Some people joke and giggle
Some people try to be civil
Some people push and tease
Some people fall to their knees
Some people don't see the pain they cause
Some people wish life would pause
I feel the hurt and I know the pain
I feel the criticism and wonder how I'm sane
They press on and on
Secretly hoping you were gone
One day you disappear
Your antagonist contemplates in fear
Did they cause your life evacuation
Maybe someone forgot to mention
Some people can't handle others actions
Some people choose unerasable reactions
