If I can't be me
Then I just don't want to be
In this world
Sitting in a corner curled
Up into a ball
As I soak my tears on the wall.

There's no point
In pretending that I am someone I'm not
Because not only am I lying
To everyone around me
But I am lying to myself
And that is was stings the worst.

I'm nothing but a worthless doormat
A person pressed down hard onto the floor
And walked all over
By anyone who thinks
They have power over me
And I'm just too weak
To stand up
And push them off
And tell them they're wrong.

If I can't be me
Then I just don't want to be
In this world
Sitting in a corner curled
Up into a ball
As I soak my tears on the wall.

I'm like a doormat;
Walked all over by everyone
But not strong enough to stand up on my own.
