Lyrics
Me
Piercing eyes that hate me
What did I do
Just trying to get along
Make it through
Flames of your anger
Leaves blisters my skin
Your sticks and stones they hurt me.
What kind of world are we living in
Where can I go
Where can I hide
Let me escape
To another day
Another time
Let me find a place
Where I am free
Safe and warm
No more harm
Where I can be
Me
Pride and hate and jealousy
They're all around
Stab me in the side
Knock me to the ground
Trap me in the darkness
What will be my fate
Please somebody help me
Before it gets too late
Lift each other up
Instead of always tearing down
One day it might be you
Getting pushed around
