You don't understand
The way I think
When I'm with you
I seem to shrink
I don't think you get
The way I feel
Your hate eats me up
Like some kind of meal
And when we hang out
I'm so afraid
That your new victim
Will be my name
"You're stupid," you said
Straight to my heart
So when I see you
I fall apart
So just be gentle
With my broke heart
Not that it matters
You make it fall apart.

You don't understand
The way I think
When I'm with you
I seem to shrink
I don't think you get
The way I feel
Your hate eats me up
Like some kind of meal
And when we hang out
I'm so afraid
That your new victim
Will be my name
"You're stupid," you said
Straight to my heart
So when I see you
I fall apart
So just be gentle
With my broke heart
Not that it matters
You make it fall apart.
To someone I know: this is me being honest. Yes, I'm angry at you. Yes, you make me wonder why I stay around you. Then I remember - it's because everyone around you thinks I'm a good influence on you. But I'm starting to think that you're doing me more harm than good. So if you want me to stay, you better stop treating me so bad.
-love, the person you bully
