I am not wrong
I am not wrong
stop saying that I am
this is not on me
the issue is with them
I did not yell
or even raise my voice
I did what I should
but how was that the right choice
Im just supposed to sit there
and listen to them put me down
they now do it
no matter who else is around
I cant be the only one
that sees whats happening here
but they all just sit there
grinning ear to ear
when we get back home
One by one they'll call
"I just wanted to check on you
That was not nice at all"
Then why did you just sit there
and watch it all unfold
you are such a coward
nothing about you is bold
They will watch me get thrown down
Time and time again
and never say a word
Because its not happening to them
Nobody wants to make any waves
But im drowning in the sea
They will watch me die
before getting wet to rescue me
