People Talk

People like to talk about me 
Just because they know it hurts me
Nobody likes to see how I see
They all just want me to live in misery
I'm clutching my fist 
I can't handle this 
Holding my head
Wishing I was dead
Nobody cares though
This is what they wanted so
Everyone knows I can't handle much more
They're all hoping I'll walk out the door
Or even better I'll hit the floor
This isn't funny it's become hard core
Stomping my feet 
I know I've been beat
Pulling my hair
How do they dare?
