Nice Tattoos - Fall River

This problem’s not mine

Yet you persist

It makes me sick

You point your finger

Always at me

My words are dissected

And they’re torn apart

Until they’re just syllables

That mean nothing at all

I’m tired of defending

The only thing I love

I’m tired of pretending

That this is good enough

This problem’s not mine

Yet you insist

We play this game

Do you feel stronger

When you place the blame?

I know I’ll never be you

I’ve got nothing to prove

Your motives bleed right through

I know I’ll never be you

Don’t act as if I wanted to

Your words are like arrows

Slung straight at my heart

They make you feel bigger

Cause you know you’re so small

I’m tired of defending

Myself to guys like you

I’m tired of pretending

I don’t see right through

Come on take a look Mr. Rockstar

All your ten-cent words won’t get you very far

If you’re not really happy with who you are
