My parents don't listen
They won't believe me
They are caught up in the past
And in a book that they
Think defines me
The knowledge that they have of

How come...why is it
That people tend to use "they" when they really are talking about a singular person?

Cause apparently
It's also ok

Book and/or movie
That is true, a some sort of biography

On a scale of 1-10 how would you rate it?
