This song was actually written to address the issue of bullying in schools. |
The TV news reports on
Incidents where the victim is kept anonymous
And as people type mail messages on their cellphones
It's a normal, picturesque day
Adults have faces that say they're experienced in matters of the heart
And they're searching for motivation
But their off logic
Is like a gag that you just can't laugh at
The future is designated
Based a grade that's on a curve
Even though we try our best
There's nothing that we can do
This was realized
A long time ago
By us
A love that I despised
Before I knew it, I was seeking it
I didn't want to be lonely or anything
I wanted someone
To hold me...
The girl who tried to be a bird
Had her shoes all lined up on the roof
Did she want to be praised for her manners?
Or was it an innuendo?
Even if at this point in my life, I took a survey
Asking me whether I've "bullied"
Or "not bullied" someone
The voice in my heart that I wanted to ask that question
Wouldn't reach me, in the wind
I still don't understand
The concept of making someone in a high position cry
By the process of passing the buck
It's a chain that's just too stupid...
I didn't the finger
At anyone
But myself
A love that I despised
I'm hungry for the opposite of that
As I pretended to not notice my insecurity
I was searching for kind eyes
All the time...
A love that I despised
Before I knew it, I was seeking it
I didn't want to be lonely or anything
I wanted someone
To hold me...
All the time...
