To You
I'm looking around the room
And I see you
I see your eyes
Those silent voices of disdain
That smirk when you think no one's watching
I see what you're thinking
You're more vapid then you think
You're thinking
"What right does she have to feel an ounce of confidence?"
But what right do you?
I see you sitting there
Wallowing in your swamp of popularity
Those mosquitoes of people
Buzzing around you
Worshipping the nourishment that comes from you
And I wonder
How do you sleep at night
Always judging people who aren't like yourself
So full of hate
Are you happy?
Cause I don't think you are
Not really
But I am
Because I don't need your approval to be myself
And that makes me happy
And one day
That hate and disdain you are so quick to use
Will one day blow up in your face
And consume you
From the outside in
And I will pity you
Just like you pity me
For loving who I am
Just thought I'd let you know
