Bad Reputation

by Erin   Apr 20, 2016


You stole my soul,
Making a widespread assumption,
I got myself a bad reputation,
Growing up being pushed down,
It's done, I can't get it back,
With nowhere to land,

Vulnerable and weak,
Living in a cage,
With all eyes on me,
Empty inside,
Looking for affection,
Never satisfied,
When I know it's all lies,

You think you know me so well,
From my bad reputation,
From my past history,
Believing before knowing,
Who I am behind the shell,
Fighting demons all my life,
my own personal hell,

You think you know me so well,
From my bad reputation,
From my past history,
Believing before knowing,
Who I am behind the shell,
Fighting demons all my life,
My own personal hell,

Everything you say,
I've already said it to myself,
Go ahead and judge,
Your opinions don't matter anymore,
Since mine never mattered to you before,

You think you know me so well,
From my bad reputation,
From my past history,
Believing before knowing,
Who I am behind the shell,
Fighting demons all my life,
my own personal hell,

Consider this my farewell,
To all the people who put me through hell,
I have the key,
I'm opening the cage,
I'm setting myself free,
I'm no longer ashamed.
