Hypocrite

the tears that burn

the throat thats raw

rejected again by my supposed friends

what do I do thats so wrong

is it because I'm me?

or because I won't let them mould me

into who they want me to be

can't they see they'd destroy me?

why do they try to make me into what I'm not

don't they know I'd rather be shot

how can they say I'm not real?

I'm sick of trying to please

just to fit in with these people

when they're the ones pretending

to be someone their not

how am I the hypocrite

when they say one thing to my face

and another behind my back

am I the hypocrite now?

because I'm writing this

on paper first

rather than risk

seeing the looks on their faces

how can you call anyone a hypocrite

when no one is perfect

so what does that make you,

a hypocrite too?
