Paper Thin

These walls are paper thin

You can hear everything that you're not supposed to

"Why is she such a mess?"

I put down my phone at my dad's voice

"If you understand her, you're crazy too!"

I cringe at the yelling

I've learned not to cry anymore so they don't know I can hear

I don't want to get into another fight

It's just not worth it anymore

"She has no reason to even be like this."

I have pressure

I'm a complete outcast who's scared to talk to anyone

You hate me if I'm not perfect, when I'm never perfect

"She's just trying to get out of school because she's lazy!"

I'm not just lazy

I'm trying to get away

From the people and the judgement

From the interrogations

From you
