Did it sound good in your head?
Those cruel words you said
the ones that were faded
overused
wrong
I heard them
they echoed around
inside me
floating slowly
taking me away
until one day
i'm nothing but a memory
standing helplessly
on the outside of this cruel world

I hope you will see this and know how we feel on the other side. What you say can hurt people. Think.
