They


They call me "her" They call me "HARMM" They call me hurtful things THAT'S NoT OKAY Can I cry in your arms? My life is prime When is it my time to shine Life is no bright star It's sad I can't go far I wish to be Nobody How come they say you wish to be NOBODY! Why wish to be NOBODY? I tell them it's hard to handle life at times Proud to be who I am But what am I becoming? Sad and a Crybaby I feel so hopeless --- to get out of this mess Hide my pain in the IMITATION of a slight Grin LOVE me don't FAZE me
