Staring out the window she sees glimpses of last And everyone is silent but speaking through their eyes Walking to the bus stop where the court of judges wait To sentence her to live her life Like she should always be ashamed Been around so many times it wears out what you are Accepting sarcasm and false sincerity As words that people mean Rejection redefined by giving up just what they're after Someone would tell you If they could speak above all this laughter Think you could learn somehow the time just isn't now Got a reputation now and no one's holding back Wearing scars on your sleeve, so exposed to their attack
All her friends have pulled the plug on respect and reserve Behind her back they prey on weakness It's not what you deserve Shot down, humiliated, pummeled by their words Devoted you lay down with misplaced loyalty Its misery you seek No longer called by name when everybody's got your number When dignity is gone That's when depression drags you under To depths you didn't know beneath and under No longer called by name when everybody's got your number When dignity is gone That's when depression drags you under To depths you didn't know beneath the undertow
