I am horrible here I am
With my righteous attitude I take a stand
I act as if i know better than you do
Because I fight too not ever feel blue
I push people away from me all of the time
And my patients is running on a thin line
I speak to strangers as they walk by
With a silent hello and never a goodbye
I am not pleasant to be around
Cranky and grouchy is what I have found
Cynical in so many ways
If you waste any of my time of the day
This is only half of my bad side
I am also puffed up with a lot of pride
Protection from rejection is what I have found
If I never let anyone stay around
So don’t get in my way and you will not see
The truth of the pain hidden inside of me
The lack of love that has taught me to live
Only for myself and not ever give
