Mean Out of Spite

# Mean out of spite
Here I am waiting
Self hating
Debating
I forgot what you said
And what I am stating

I’m questioning why
You need me to cry
You see in my eyes 
You know I don’t lie 

So why must you poke
You know I mis spoke
You’re making me nervous
Of course i will choke

I don’t like to fight
You’re probably right 
But I had good intentions
You’re mean out of spite
