Why is everything I do right, wrong
And everything wrong, right?
Why is it when I try,
It's always seen in the wrong light?
Why is everything I say
Isn't what should be
Instead, I'm told what is right
My mistake displayed for all to see
Every act, every movement
It isn't the right one
But when I do things that aren't right
Somehow, it's what I should have done
Every word, every glance
It was the wrong thing to do
And with everyone, a bad impression
And they don't seem to get a clue
This one time I was joking
Another, slip of tongue
This other time I was just kidding
But to me, it's no fun
I wish I didn't have these problems
But they seem to be stuck with me
So every cursed day I live
In terrible agony
There's nothing I can do
No place I can hide
From all these dreadful things
Or to rest and heal inside
I continue on, hurting more
And I suffer all the same
And to this person, I do know
This person, she has no name
