I'm always running around
pushing myself harder
beyond my limits
beyond what you try to
make me do
but it's not good enough
never good enough for you
you just look at me with daggers
in your eyes
and I wonder what I did to
deserve your scrutiny
and your hostility
but can't you see I'm doing
the best that I can
I'm doing the best I ever did
just go away
You like to take advantage of me
treat me like I'm less than human
but all I do is bare the weight
of your demands
bare the judgement you
throw at me
so what the fuck do you
expect of me
well can't you see I'm doing
the best that I can
I'm doing the best I ever did
just go away
I don't need you to
be so dirty to me
I never asked to be
given the blame for anything
and why do you put
on such a cheap act
in front of your superiors?
Don't you think I can't see
past that ugly exterior?
I hope you realize that
I can't stand to see you
laughing amongst your colleagues
when in the end I'm the one that has
to take the brunt force of
your cold demeanor
well can't you see I'm
doing the best that I can
I'm doing the best
I ever did
just go away
You rubbed me off the
wrong way from the start
left a bad taste in my mouth
never really showed me
any respect or appreciation
you just keep shooting darts at me
and I guess I was always your perfect
target but I know I'm not the only
one underneath your wrath
you've been this way with
others just like me
and yet you still play favorites
but I'm not here to be a kiss up
I'm just doing the best that I can
I'm doing the best I ever did
just fucking go away
Try to guess who I wrote this about. There's a couple of hints.
And if you guess correctly I might give your work or username a shout out upon your request so good luck :)
