I'm not even mad
Not even a little
I thought I saw
A little hope
A little glimmer
I admit
I am not saying that I'm no sinner
But I must say, I'm dissapointed
To say the least
It's almost like a disease
To say one lie to a person's face
And expect no recoil, no feeling of disgrace
I was afriad of this, this awful smell
It beguils and dwells
I grown tired of this, this awful place
Constantly searching for allies in this race
This human race
I've made mistakes
And I've told lies
But what I have I done to be granted such despise?
I'm not even upset
Not a little at all
Just because I'm a cousin
It doesn't mean nothin
Just because I'm a niece
Smile, look nice and say please
It doens't mean nothin
I see that now
Nothin it is and nothing it shall be
Somehow I ended up here and I have a choice to make
I wonder if it'll be a mistake
To continue to be so blind to other people's horrible tragedies
Or to placate and be accomadate everyone else's feelings
At the risk of ignoring my own?
