They said you were an absolutist,
They said it like it would excuse everything,
They said a promise is a promise,
yet they expect me to break my own to myself.
They said it wasn't as bad as I thought,
They told me it was ok,
They told me to relax, and loosen up,
yet they want me to believe in myself.
They said it was hard to protect from a distance,
They wanted me to step aside,
They said there was nothing to fear,
yet they dream slimey things in the dark.
They said I looked fine,
They told me I was wonderful,
They said I made a difference,
yet when I looked to them, they slouched behind their doors.
