To The Bullies Lyrics

I've got round glasses framing my face

And I sit in the classroom, alone in the corner

Will you ever love me, will I ever be free

It's 2009, I'm cracking jokes so you'll like me

But then the bell rings

I go over to the swings

You push me and pull me down

You don't belong here

They pull my hair

You're just a four eyed freak

It's another lunchtime, playing on the swings

My friend starts to harass me, calling me names

I start to get upset, tell her to stop

We push each other, she falls and cries

I instantly apologise

A sad look in her eyes

The teacher comes I try to explain

But then she makes a claim

It's her fault, Mrs Pain

I'm betrayed and broken

I was just a lonely girl

Finding her place in this world

Wanting to laugh with friends

And just sit and pretend

It's all I ever wanted

But you ripped me apart

Broke every edge of my heart

My life was misery

Why did you do this to me?

It's taken some time but I'm finally over it now

I'm a strong woman ready to take over this town

But if you happen to listen to this song one day

I hope you feel guilty, I hope you know better today

Cause some days I can see it

The tears and insults

Although it was years ago

And the effects are dormant

But when someone is warming

I'm taken back to that time

When I fought to survive

Was told I deserved to die

Cried every night from the pain

So how am I supposed to thrive

Or live a normal life

When I was told for half of it that

I was repulsive

And that I was ugly

And that I didn't deserve any friends

But I was only a child

Yeah I was only a child

Now I hope you understand what I'm going through

What I went through

What you put me through
