The words repeat in my head
The things they said
We are tired of you
Well...
There's something we have in common
I'm tired of me too
I'm so tired
I really don't know what to do.
Why didn't you come to us?
How could I
When I know you
You yell, criticize, and throw shame at me
You are supposed to love me
Raise me
But is criticizing part of raising me....
Loving me.
I can't wait till you are out of this house.
Well I can't wait to not be in your shadow...
I'm tired!
I don't know what to do!
Should I stay and fight,
Or should I just give up?
I'm tired!
Why are you bringing me pain?
Why must your words cut so deep in me?
Why can't you see?
Why can't you see that I'm trying—
That I'm hurting?
You keep bringing me down
You keep tearing at my soul.
No-more!
I say stop!
Leave me alone.
You can keep saying the things you say
You can keep bringing me down
You can keep being tired of me
But I say
No-more
I say
Stop!
Because one day...
One day
I will be gone.
It won't be me who cause the damage
Not this time
It will be you
Because you wouldn't think
You just said.
And I'm sorry,
But I'm not sorry for what I just said.
