No one ever said
That you had to act this way
Be absolutely perfect
Just every single day
No one ever mentioned
That because of who I was
I could not be one of them
With no more reason than "because"
No one ever told me
How people just dont care
Whether I was there that day
Or fell deep into despair
No ever said these words
But actions always speak louder
And through the false cheer in your eyes
I saw feelings as small as powder
No one ever came
And tried to become my friend
For stereotypes and prejudice
Seemed to be the current trend
No one ever bothered
To try to understand
That person that was found inside
Left alone, like a small island
And because no one ever showed it
I very nearly cried
Displaying my feelings to the world
Who tried to sympathize
Yet the feelings just grew worse
For I still could clearly see
No honest aura of friendship
But pity and detestation towards me
So what if they looked not my way
Their hearts all full of stone
I could always go and read a book
And maybe be no longer alone
So what if they didn't care
Their eyes so flinty cold
I don't need their sympathy
And yet, I'm hardly bold
So what if they don't like me
Yet, it matters all the same
No one truly cares
About this girl with this name
