Am I just a fly on the wall to you?
Simple, and plain
A thing to be ignored
But you should know
This delicate flower is easily burned
The petals will fall off
And the ashes float up into the night
You have my thanks for teaching me this truth
If you are cruel in this cruel world,
You survive
If you are kind in this cruel world,
You become the victim.
The first part is about someone who is always listening, and feeling like you're being ignored and tossed to the side because people are talking about you when they know that you can hear them, the middle part is about getting hurt from always listening, and the last part is about how often times kind people get hurt more often than cruel people.
