Verse 1
They call my name, they laugh, they shove,
Push me down, like I’m not enough.
My accent’s wrong, my clothes too weird,
Every smile met with jeers.
Pretend friends, always a lie,
Whispering secrets as I walk by.
Smart is a crime, my family’s wrong,
I don’t belong, I don’t belong.
Pre-Chorus
I’m walking halls, all alone,
No one looks up, no one calls home.
Every joke, every shove, every lie,
Cuts me deep, I just wanna cry.
Chorus
Why do you make me feel this way?
Invisible, broken, pushed away.
I’m more than your laughs, more than your lies,
I’ll survive these halls, though I’ve cried.
You won’t see the strength I’ll find,
Even when you leave me behind.
Verse 2
I try to change, try to fit,
But you don’t stop, don’t quit.
Hair too long, too short, too plain,
Nothing I do will ease this pain.
You pretend, you fake, you play your game,
I’m the target, you have no shame.
I bite my tongue, I hide my tears,
But I’m stronger than your fears.
Pre-Chorus
I’m walking halls, all alone,
No one looks up, no one calls home.
Every joke, every shove, every lie,
Cuts me deep, I just wanna cry.
Chorus
Why do you make me feel this way?
Invisible, broken, pushed away.
I’m more than your laughs, more than your lies,
I’ll survive these halls, though I’ve cried.
You won’t see the strength I’ll find,
Even when you leave me behind.
Bridge
I’m not just whispers, not just pain,
I’ll rise above, break every chain.
One day you’ll see what you couldn’t break,
The girl you mocked, the heart you shake.
Chorus / Outro
Why do you make me feel this way?
Invisible, broken, pushed away.
I’m more than your laughs, more than your lies,
I’ll survive these halls, though I’ve cried.
You won’t see the strength I’ll find,
Even when you leave me behind.
