[hometext] => Written with an unjust anger, half-ashamedly
[bodytext] => Lifeless, unharming You act like a mirror Their moods you submit across a blank canvas Then complain when they expect you to change. If you'd stand up occasionnaly for what you believe in Take a stand on a life worth living Not play Miss Perfect to a disilusioned crowd Then feel plain when they turn from you on a whim. Have I not been there when you felt that pain? Was I not understanding when you stood with the hurt? When the knife hovered and the words echoed in your mind. And you felt unloved again, unwanted once more. And now, so quick to forgive, so sharp to befriend Those who will not be there in a week, a month When your life again takes a melodramatic somersault. I would have been, I would have tried-like I did. Forget it, the matter is behind. But nobody knows you when youre down and out. I wont remember. I wont know.
