Hear Me Now

When you say my words aren't ones that are meant to be heard,

For what it's worth,

Nothing seems to be working.

You don't want to hear me regardless,

It doesn't matter what it is,

My tone, and it's never your fault.

If you wanted me to just leave you alone,

You'd have said it,

But these games just go on for days.

You'll never hear me, and wow,

I just can't speak out loud enough for you to hear.

I thought if I was so clear,

Softly outspoken,

You'd hear my words and not just the 'bitching' as what you call it.

I've had enough of feeling like I'm too damn much,

Or not enough of all the stuff that you want.

So I'm gonna have to run and not care if it gets noticed.

My happiness can't depend on the motives

Of someone so wrapped up in themselves.

You may as well go on your way, baby,

You know it ain't fair that you stay

And be a victim of another motif.

People have needs,

And what is there left

After you've met every single one

Is you, naked and exposed,

To much of everything

They didn't want to choose

Too damn much for them to love.

You deserve more, you've never been too much

You've never been enough

This isn't bargained for anymore

You've chosen your batro2a

It can't be ignored

You can hit the door

Because they didn't care to hear you

When you cried out.

Your voice didn't seem to matter

When it was the loudest no doubt

Be the optimist,

This world is yours for the taking, baby,

It's their loss.

It's your world for the shaking

You keep the wins,

They'll wish they would have listened,

But you were just *itching."
