What's Wrong?

by Amanda   Feb 8, 2005


I have all these mixed emotions,
I don't know what's wrong with me.
I wish someone would give me a notion,
How much more confused could I possibly be?

I cry when I should laugh,
I don't understand what it is I feel.
All I can think about is the pain in my past,
Everything that happened doesn't even seem real.

To some people life is just a game,
Sometimes it feels like I don't belong.
Seeing how people act is just a shame,
People who stare should just move along.

It's horrible how some are happy with others' pain,
People aren't satisfied with the hurt they've already caused.
My trust is what they will not gain,
Any trust they had left is already gone.

Look in my eyes and tell me what you see,
Or does the pain make you look the other way?
Your stupidity and actions do not amuse me,
I hate the pain and hurt you cause each day.

Just tell me why you act the way you do,
That is a question I need to know.
Explain the reason and I'll try to understand you,
It's your true emotions and feelings you must show.

What is wrong with you?
Are you that completely blind?
You can't even see all the hurt that you do,
You can't even see the pain in our eyes?

Respect and trust is what most people lack,
But I am one of those few who know of respect.
You complain that people talk shit behind your back,
Well, the way you act that's what you should expect.

What is wrong with the world we live in today?
I wish that I could have grown up way back when.
That's when no one looked at life like a game to play,
That's the way it should've always been.
