Proving Them Wrong

They said you were too loved to need (any) extra attention,
But you showed them the neglection,
And proved them wrong.

They said you were too quiet to ever do (any) harm,
But you showed them the scars,
And proved them wrong.

They said you were too smart to let others bring you down,
But you uncovered your frown,
And proved them wrong.

They said you were too happy to repeat your past,
But you rolled up your sleeves as asked,
And proved them wrong.

They said you were too strong to let what they say bother you,
But you tied yourself a noose,
And proved them wrong.
