I'm not the pretty one she is
I'm not the smart one he is
I'm not the strong one she is
I'm the nothingness in the background
"You're fat"
"Your mom is pretty"
"You were so pretty when you where younger, what happened?"
I'm sorry I'm not pretty
"Why are you failing your classes?"
"Why don't you try harder?"
"When did you stop caring about your grades?"
I'm sorry I'm not smart
"Why are you so weak?"
"When did you get so slow?"
"When did you stop being strong?"
I'm sorry I'm not strong
"Crying is for the weak"
"Never show weakness"
"Stay arms length from people, they turn on you"
The words my dad told me when I cried
"You're mean and hateful"
What he said when I woke him up from a nap
"You where a mistake"
He said when I asked about my birth
I've had boyfriends and girlfriends who said other wise
I've had friends who said they were wrong
But they said I was when I asked
I agree with them now
I'm not pretty
I'm not smart
I'm not strong
I'm nothingness that doesn't need to live
That doesn't need to be there
That's just a burden to others
I'm not the strong boy
I'm not the smart one
I'm not the pretty girl
