Giving In
You put the blame on me
but can’t you see,
in this world full of lies
you think I’m so shy,
but I have a lot to say
about what goes
on today.
You say I’m wrong,
but I know I’m right,
now I know,
that I can’t win
this fight.
Just believe me,
just this once
can’t you see?
your judgement
has no effect
on me,
you try and hurt me
even though I plea.
I’m a flame,
that can’t be
put out,
even when you
scream and shout.
Try and pull
me down,
and surely
you will see,
that your words
have no effect on me,
I’m the only
one who gets
no credit,
why don’t you
get it?
I try so hard to
do it right,
I have these
feelings, deep
within, always
knowing that I
can’t win,
but if I try too hard,
I’ll always end up
giving in.
